The Silk Road was a trading route that was used for different countries to be able to get items or resources they could not attain. The route went from Europe to China and later on the Indian continent made their own route connecting to the Silk Road so they could pose as the middle man. The trade with far away place like the Chinese and the Roman Empire was very unlikely so most trading was done by outpost. A merchant would go to a town trade their items and then the products would be traded to the other town until it reached the end of the trading route. The Mongols where nomadic pastoralists who rode horses and never lived in one place until they started to conquer cities. One of the reasons the Black Plague spreader so quickly was because of the Silk Road just like the items traded the Black Plague would go town to town. When the mongols would conquer a city they also could carry the plague and infect the people of the city too. These are some of the reasons why the Black Plague infected so much so quickly.
