Plague of 1776

The Plague of 1776 was one of the most devastating pandemics in history, second only to the Great Dark Plague. The plague killed off an estimated 80 million to 190 million people in 11 months. The plague also created a series of social, economic and religious upheavals, which had profound effects in the course of the current global history.

The plague was also a primary factor in the First Continental War which happened 3 years later. Many countries had their military power weakened by the plague and by the subsequent conflict.

The Plague was thought to have spread from the Eastern continent. Due to unknown reasons that are probably due to seafaring, continental traveling, constant warfare and unrest caused a large-scale outbreak on the world.
