The black death is thought to have originated in Asia but then traveled to Europe in 1347. Traders in the Crimea have been besieged for three years by Tarter hordes from Central Asia. The black death broke out among the Tartars, they then used the dead bodies and flung them inside the walls of the building which then meant the disease was inside of the fort. The Tartars then fled and the survivors from the fort set sail to Europe and brought the disease with them thus the disease getting to Europe.
