Interesting question. The black death was a rather ready virus or as they called it a "plague". The reason it was so deadly it because it was a brand new virus/plague that the Europeans had never encounterd therefore being rather deadly for there immune system was not ready for it and had no way of treating it because it was an known virus from overseas. If you didn't know it was carried over on a ship where the virus was attached to a rat with further infected the crew and soon after the entire towb

What was said below is true but also because there was no way of actually treating the disease and stupid cures were invented for it which of course didn't work. They tried getting rid of all animals but getting rid of rats was hard due to the living conditions of medieval times. Considering this we learn that it killed a third of the population of Europe. That's several millions of people. However it didn't only have a devastating effect on Europe, it had it everywhere. While typically we focus on plague in England and Europe it is important to realise that it came from the Middle East or even further away in India and that it had devastating effects there too.

How did the advancements made by greek and roman civilizations influence the byzantine empire
prisoha [69]
Greek and Roman civilizations set the foundations for art, literature, and architecture for many civilizations to come, including the Byzantine Empire. To clarify, the Byzantine Empire was the remnants of the Roman Empire, which fell due to invasions from Germanic tribes from the north, who were pushed into Roman territory by the Huns. Because most of its people were Roman, the Byzantine Empire adopted many customs and art forms from the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire, in turn, was affected by Greek culture, when Alexander the Great took much of the land that the Roman Empire would come to be settled on as well as Greece. The combination of the cultures from the lands Alexander took and Greek culture was called Hellenistic culture, and most Roman beliefs and ideas came from this. This is evident in Roman gods, who are essentially the same as the gods in Greek mythology, save for different names. 

To recap, the culture of the Byzantine Empire was largely based off of that of the Roman Empire, whose culture was largely based off of Greek culture.
