How did trade routes contribute to the rapid spread of the Black Death?
Silk Road: An ancient network of trade routes that connected the East and West. It was used to transport goods including silk, spices, gold, and other luxury items. Silk Road played a crucial role in connecting cultures and civilizations, facilitating the exchange of goods, technology, and ideas. The Silk Road served as a bridge between the ancient empires of Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia, India, China, and Rome.
