Answer 2

All i know is a bit of the fisrt question. The black plague came from china and it spreaded through bits by trafe, but mostly from Mongols when they were trying to conquest all the way to eastern Europe. They would launch these dead bodies infected with the plague, which hey didnt know over city walls which would eventually infect the people insides the city. The major impact was rapid population decline, mostly by death

Answer 3

Both are great explanations.. and wasn't it just simply infected rats that traveled with people that infected almost everyone?
