The Black Death was the worst catastrophe to hit mankind in recorded history. It killed a third to a half of the populations in all the lands it reached.
But did you know that it stopped an emperor from conquering the whole of India?
....that it fatally undermined the huge Mongol empire?
....that some modern scholars trace the origins of the industrial revolution right back to this pandemic?
This app is for anyone who knows little or nothing about the Black Death and wants to find out what all the fuss is about. It also comes with Learning Challenges to use in an educational setting.
A sequence of maps graphically shows the pandemic as it spreads ever outwards over a huge area of the Eastern Hemisphere. The maps have a considerable amount of information linked to them, covering such themes as the reasons for the plague's great expansion and the dramatic impact it had on the widely separate regions of the world it reached. Contemporary sources convey the shock which the coming of the disease caused, wherever it arrived.
