It is thought of the black death (Bubonic Plague, black plague, etc.) starting in 1347 and ended in 1349. It began in the Gobi desert, was passed on from the mongols to Italian fishers who brought it to Italy, sewer system was very bad, rats walked over the cities spreading even more the disease making it an epidemic.
