The Black Death

     “The Black Death,” also known as “The Plague” caused great amount of death during the 18^th century. It originated from mouse, which made its appearance especially in dirty, filthy environments. London at that time was having the Industrial Revolution, which made poor people even poorer, and the wealthy even richer. During that time, most people didn’t even have places to stay. They slept on streets and searched food on roads or trash cans. Combining the cold winter, the massive pollution, and bad hygiene, mice came along. Mice only made the already suffering condition even worse, thus there was “The Black Death.” With no treatments to cure this disease, the result was the death of lots of people.
