Noble Landholders
During the bubonic plague, the labor shortage caused by the high mortality rates increased the demand for skilled workers, including knights, who were needed to maintain order and protection. This led to an increase in the prestige and power of knights as they were essential in providing security and maintaining social order during the crisis.
The bubonic plague weakened the power of the Roman Catholic Church in Western Europe by causing a decline in the number of clergy members and a loss of faith among the population due to the church's inability to stop the spread of the disease. This led to a decrease in the church's influence and authority during the outbreak.
Sift in power from nobles to common people: fewer people could demand for more money and rights.Many serfs abandoned feudal manors.Serfs had more freedom of choice
Power Began to shift to common people The Bubonic Plague spread Serfs and Peasents abandoned and rebeled against feudal manors
The bubonic plague significantly disrupted economic development in medieval times by drastically reducing the population, which led to labor shortages. This scarcity of workers allowed surviving laborers to demand higher wages, shifting the balance of power towards the working class. Additionally, the decline in population resulted in decreased demand for goods, causing a reduction in production and trade activities. Ultimately, these changes contributed to the gradual transition from feudal economies to more market-oriented systems.
There were three types of plague. The bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonia. The bubonic was spread by infected fleas from small animals and exposure to body fluids from dead infected animals. In this form the bacteria enters through the skin through a flea bite and goes to the lymph nodes causing it to swell. Diagnosis is by finding the bacteria in the blood or fluids from lymph nodes. The plague swept through Asia, Europe, and Africa in the 14th century killing 50 million people. This was about 25% to 60% of Europe and because it killed so many of the working population wages rose due to the demand for labor. Some historians see this as a turning point in European economic development and they also now know it entered Europe through Italy on board ships that came in from Asia.
Two theories, take your pick; 1). An ancient belief was that your spirit was ejected from your body when you sneezed and someone nearby would bless you so that Satan or his demons wouldn't be able to inhabit the stolen body, until the rightful spirit returned. 2). Sneezing was one of the symptoms of the bubonic plague and people around you would try to invoke divine power to deflect the rest of the plague from you.
Weakened power of the church, increased power of the king, 1/3 population died, Fuedalism was weakened.

Well in Europe alone it killed around 25 million people, and cut the population by a third. In England the population dropped by 75%. The ramifications of this were huge, the feudal system introduced by the Norman on their invasion of England was stripped of power as peasants were now asking for payment because the demand for workers in agriculture. Aswell as this the Black Death (which was a combination of both the bubonic plague and pneumonic plague) is said to have been an indirect cause of the Peasants revolt in 1381. The government changed the wages of the peasants to those they were receiving before the Black Death (the Statute of Labours act 1351.) Hope this helps.
Ok look basically it was because of the Bubonic Plague which was started by fleas on rats that got onto trade ships. That's just one reason. Another reason is because of the Clergy. The Pope wanted to much. He tryed getting more and more power threatening to excommunicate people from the Roman Catholic Church.
