The Black Death, also known as the Black Plague(or just The Plague to most), was said to be "one of the deadliest pandemics in human history". The pandemic is thought to have begun in Central Asia, and spread to Europe during the 1340s. The total number of deaths worldwide is estimated at 75 million people, approximately 25-50 million of which occurred in Europe. The Black Death is estimated to have killed 30% to 60% of Europe's population. It may have reduced the world's population from an estimated 450 million to between 350 and 375 million in 1400. I'm sure that's correct the Figures may be a little off, but I'm sure you get the General Idea. (_/)
