The Bubonic Plague, also known as the black death, ravaged Europe in the thirteenth and fourteenth century, destroying about one-third of the population. It was still around in the 16th and even in the 17th centuries, but was an old story by then. However, there was a new disease that spread like wildfire across Europe in the early 1500s. This was a disease called syphilis, an extremely virulent sexually transmitted disease which Columbus and his sailors brought back from North America.
