Stuff you missed in history class!

The Black Death happened in 1347-1351. The Black Death killed 25 million or 1/3 of the population in Europe. It is said to have started in Asia, and it has been traced that the cases were intercepted through the trade posts.
The Black Death caused purple splotches on the individuals body. These purple splotches are said to be "God's Token," and cause a quick death. The tumors, ranged in size, and developed along with the Black Death. Due to these tumors their heads were sometimes pushed to the side because of the size of the tumor.
