The period of the plague
The second plague was the pandemic during the early 14th century. This was a period of sanitation issues and a period of renewal. The sanitation of the early settlements were of poor conditions and created health issues. People would throw their wastes in the streets and would let the waste sit in the street until it was swept in the sewage. The dirty environment brought a whole new meaning to infection and could let the infection spread like reproducing rabbits. It was a terrible time to be living and the plague definitely took care of that.

Anyone who had it could easily spread it without even knowing, and could get it without even knowing where it came from. The plague held many people in a frantic and many countries were deserted. People lived out in the middle of nowhere and sought shelter as soon as they could. The plague was an epidemic that brought instant death.
