Introduction

    Welcome to the year 1348! You are now a doctor attempting to find and correct the causes of the Black Death in Europe. In order to do so, follow the trail of links in order to research, identify, and resolve the causes of this horrible occurrence. Keep in mind the plague is very contagious, therefore you must be careful not to contract it yourself. After all, how can you help contain the spread of the disease if you're dead?

Here are some questions to consider during your investigation:

• How did the plague spread to your homeland in Europe?
• What are the symptoms of the disease?
• How many lives have been lost in different locations at this point in time?
• How can you observe the disease without contracting it?

    Now you're on your own. Remember, be careful not to contract the disease. Your mission is very important to the rest of civilization. Good Luck!
