How did the Black Death affect economic trades with other countries?
The Black Death was around in the Time Period of (1347-1353)
The Black Death came from trading ships that had just come from along journey from the Black Sea, when the ships pulled up to the dock almost everyone on those ships were already dead or greatly ill. They were covered in black boils that oozed out pus,giving it it's name, the Black Death. They were ordered to send the ships away immediately but it was too late, the next few years the disease will spread all over Europe .
How did those sailors get this disease? Well it comes from fleas that live on rats which our on there ships. What happens is the digestive system on the slea gets blocked and the flea regurgitates the virus onto its host, the black rat. The rat becomes infected and that's when the pleauge breaks out.
The Black Death is also known as bubonic pleauge, bubonic pleauge kills about 50% of those infected. It can also take pneumonic or septicemic form and in those forms kills bout 100% of the time.
but it was too late: Over the next five years, the mysterious Black Death would kill more than 20 million people in Europe–almost one-third of the continent’s population.
The plague effected the economy and social being of the people very strongly. I fact it changed it completely, people abandoning there friends and family, fleeing cites, shut themseveles out from the world, worked ceased to be done during this time. Some thought this was gods rath on them thought that they would not catch it if they prayed.faith in religion decreased after the plague parly because of so many deaths and also the failure of prayer to prevent sickness and death. The economy under went a abrupt and extreme inflation. Since there were little to no workers and it was dangerous to produce goods the prices both locally and imported skyrocketed. The very few amount of workers wages went up to keep them working. The peasants became more I powered and tried to revolt when the aristocracy attempted to resist the changes brought by the plague.
