The Black Death, a medieval pandemic that was likely the bubonic plague, is generally associated with Europe. This is not surprising, since it killed an estimate 1/3 of the European population in the 14th century. However, the plague started in Asia-and it devastated many areas of that continent, as well. Unfortunately, the course of the pandemic in Asia is not as thoroughly documented as it is for Europe. However, the Black Death does appear in records from across Asia in the 1330s and 1340s.
Since China was one of the busiest of the world's trading nations, it was only a matter of time before the outbreak of plague in China spread to western Asia and Europe. In October of 1347, several Italian merchant ships returned from a trip to the Black Sea, one of the key links in trade with China.
