Black Death was an epidemic of Plague that killed millions of people in Europe in the ................... century.
Answer: B
The Black Death struck Europe in the Fourteenth century.
The pandemic of bubonic plague reached Europe in 1347 through Mediterranean ports and spread across the continent by 1351, killing an estimated third or more of the population. The labour shortage that followed shook the manorial system and helped provoke revolts such as the English Peasants' Revolt of 1381.
The thirteenth century came before the outbreak, and the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries saw recurring but smaller plague epidemics, not the Black Death itself.
