The Black Death

Origin of the plague

1347: Plague Reaches Europe!

The Culprits

The Disease Cycle Human is infected! Flea drinks rat blood that carries the bacteria. Bacteria multiply in flea’s gut. Human is infected! Flea bites human and regurgitates blood into human wound. Flea’s gut clogged with bacteria.

The Famine of 1315-1317 By 1300 Europeans were farming almost all the land they could cultivate. A population crisis developed. Climate changes in Europe produced three years of crop failures between 1315-17 because of excessive rain. As many as 15% of the peasants in some English villages died. One consequence of starvation & poverty was susceptibility to disease.

Septicemic Form: almost 100% mortality rate. The Symptoms 1 Bulbous Septicemic Form: almost 100% mortality rate.

Septicemic Form: almost 100% mortality rate. The Symptoms 2 Septicemic Form: almost 100% mortality rate.

Attempts to Stop the Plague Pogroms against the Jews “Golden Circle” obligatory badge “Jew” hat

The Mortality Rate 30% - 35% 25,000,000 dead !!!

What were the political, economic, and social effects of the Black Death??

The consequences of this violent catastrophe were many: a cessation of wars a sudden slump in trade the drastic reduction of the amount of land under cultivation the ruin of many landowners the shortage of labour compelled the substitution of wages or money rents in place of labour services in an effort to keep their tenants. there was also a general rise in wages these changes brought a new social fluidity

A rough estimate is that 25 million people died from plague during the Black Death. The population of western Europe did not reach again its pre-1348 level until the beginning of the 16th century.
