Fought eighteen days apart in the fall of 1777, the two Battles of Saratoga were a turning point in the American Revolution. On September 19th, British General John Burgoyne achieved a small, but costly victory over American forces led by Horatio Gates and Benedict Arnold. Though his troop strength had been weakened, Burgoyne again attacked the Americans at Bemis Heights on October 7th, but this time was defeated and forced to retreat. He surrendered ten days later, and the American victory convinced the French government to formally recognize the colonist’s cause and enter the war as their ally.
On September 19, 1777, Burgoyne attacked. The fiery Arnold prodded Gates out of his defensive mentality, winning permission to lead Morgan’s men and Henry Dearborn’s light infantry into the woods to block a British flanking column. For most of the afternoon, a furious struggle raged around and across a clearing called Freeman’s Farm; Arnold poured in fresh regiments until the jittery Gates broke off the action, leaving the battered British in possession of the ground in what came to be known as the Battle of Freeman’s Farm.

The history of the Black Plague serves to project the environmental and economic consequences of the current coronavirus pandemic, given the similarities between both historical events.
Thus, the Black Plague implied, like the current pandemic, an almost total cessation of economic activities at the global level, causing a consequent increase in poverty rates, with the consequent decrease in the population's standard of living.
But, on the other hand, the decrease in production during the Plague had beneficial effects for the environment, since it decreased the increasing rates of environmental pollution at that time. In this sense, a similar situation is being experienced in the present, since restrictions on certain activities and circulation in general have slowed down the already advanced global pollution process.
