Edward III was king when the plague arrived in 1348 as well as during its next two outbreaks (1361 and 1369). It continued to return periodically under his successors until the 17th century.

When did the Black Death happen?

The outbreak of the bubonic plague that has become known as the Black Death occurred in 1348, reaching Europe (Sicily) with a fleet of Genovese trading ships in October of the year. Northern Europe was hit by 1348, and was ravaged by an eastwards spread for the next four years. However, similar outbreaks on smaller scales had occurred before, and would recur at least five times during the 14th century and throughout the earlier half of the 15th.


Why does the black death have a song?

You are probably asking about the song and nursery rhyme, "Ring a Ring o' Roses," which is often said to have come into being because of the Black Death. In fact, this piece was first published in 1881, and the association with the Black Death was not made in print before World War II. So the association would appear to be a myth that survives because it can easily be believed. There is a link to the plague interpretation of an article on the nursery rhyme below.


Did the rats play a role in the black death?

Yes they did because they were the first things to get 'The Black Death' and their bodys could not handle the symptoms of 'The Black Death'. So as the days passed by the rats slowly died and the humans usally caught the disease because the rats would live in there house and usally get everywhere back in the 'Medievil' times because it wasn't clean.
