    how the bubonic plague was started.

    The plague
    began in Asia. Traveling trade routes, it infected
    parts of Asia, the Muslim world, and Europe. In
    1347, a fleet of Genoese merchant ships arrived in
    Sicily carrying bubonic plague, also known as the
    Black Death. It got the name because of the purplish
    or blackish spots it produced on the skin. The disease
    swept through Italy. From there it followed
    trade routes to Spain, France, Germany, England,
    and other parts of Europe and North Africa.
