AnswerActually, the Black Death originated from Central Asia, most possibly China or India, in around 1346. It then spread to the Crimea by infected Mongolian traders who spread the disease to the town of Caffa (one of the earliest forms of biological warfare where the Mongolian traders catapulted the infected corpses over the town wall.) The plague then spread through Germany, Italy, Spain and France. Eventually in the summer of 1348 it reached England through a port either in Melcombe, Bristol or Southampton (records are not certain.)

2: In 1437,the worst biological disaster in the history of mankind swept through Europe,wiping out almost half the population in three years.
