You receive another request for help. This time you’re being asked to identify a problem and let people know what to expect in the future.


Stefano Buonaiuti of Italy is in distress. What is this “pestilence” everyone is talking about? Where did it come from? What’s going to happen to Europe? Stefano has even begun to believe that no one will survive, and life as he knows it will come to an end. Your mission is to research his problem, find out what it is, what caused it, and send him a message in a time capsule letting him know what the future will bring. Read what Stefano Buonaiuti has to say about the disease:


In the year of our lord 1348 there occurred in the city of Florence a great pestilence, and such was its fury and violence that in whatever household it took hold, whosoever took care of the sick, all the carers died of the same illness, and almost nobody survived beyond the fourth day . . . Such was the fear that nobody knew what to do: when it caught hold in a household, it often happened that not a single person escaped death. . . .


At every church, or at most of them, pits were dug, down to the water-table, as wide and deep as the parish was populous; and therein, whosoever was not very rich, having died during the night, would be shouldered by those whose duty it was [and be] thrown into this pit. The next morning there would be very many in the pit. Earth would be taken and thrown down on them; and then others would come on top of them, and then earth on top again, in layers, with very little earth, like garnishing lasagna with cheese.


[Source: Stefano Buonaiuti (1327-1385)]

What is the name of the pestilence?

Where did it come from?

What caused it?

Where did it spread?

What are the short-term effects?

What are the long-term effects?

Write down your summary to put in a time capsule for Stefano.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

What is the name of the pestilence?-  The black death.

Where did it come from? rats and other rodents

What caused it? A bacteria called Yersinia pestis

Where did it spread? Transmission of the plague to people can also occur from eating infected animals such as squirrels (for example, in the southeastern U.S.) Once someone has the plague, they can transmit it to another person via aerosol droplets.

What are the short-term effects? Famine, noone worked in fear of catching the black death or, they had already caught it and was either dead or sick.

What are the long-term effects? The long term effects of the Black Death were devastating and far reaching. Agriculture, religion, economics and even social class were affected. Contemporary accounts shed light on how medieval Britain was irreversibly changed...

Answer 2

Answer:

  Dear Stefano,

   I have heard that you have been distressed about the recent "pestilence" that has been going around and I wanted to share with you some things that might be helpful to know. The name of the pestilence is the Black Death or the Bubonic plague. The Bubonic plague was believed to start in China and spread along trade routes. The cause of the pestilence is infected fleas that are found on rats and other rodents. The pestilence spreads when an infected flea jumps from person to person, biting and killing them. The short-term effects/symptoms of the pestilence are fever, chills, extreme weakness, stomach aches, and nausea. The long-term effects/things that are happening or should be expected to happen are a drastic decline in the population, cities being fled, many children are being abondoned, and famine due to a lack of workers and farmers. Some ways to prevent getting sick are, using soap and washing your hands, telling others to use soap and wash their hands, and if you see rodents on the street do not touch or come close to them. I know you are worried but this plague will end eventually, right now this is all you can do to prevent this plague. I wish you the best.

why were the European countries afraid of Another War? Please use your own words!​

Answers

Answer:

They were worried there economy could fall and they might not live another war.

Answer:

After WW1 the nations of France and Britain who were the main victors of the war feared another war with Germany. As their debt was still unpaid, Germany also improved their military strength against the Treaty of Versailles. The best way to deal with Nazi Germany in their position was diplomacy which they tried through appeasement. France especially that bordered Germany did not have the advanced technology that the Germans developed such as faster and agile tanks and improved planes. Instead, France had invested in the Maginot Line that they did not build through Belgium. Britain had also been worried since their main line of defense was their navy and Germany had improved it since the rise of Hitler. Not only was Germany a threat but Fascist Italy as well which also borders France in the South.
