Abstract

In 2020, a new kind of coronavirus suddenly spread from Wuhan to the whole world. Then the cities were blockaded, and the whole nation was alerted. Social media have begun to call COVID-19 as “modern plague”. Compared to 1340s, a plague that swept across Europe called the Black Death killed 25 million Europeans, a third of the total population of Europe at that time. The Renaissance was supposed to be prosperous, so did the arrival of the black death affect the European economy? Is the impact positive or negative? In addition, it disintegrated the serfdom system, but at the same time, it led to significant changes in the European economic system. This paper will explore the similarities and differences between the covid-19 2020 and the black death in medieval Europe in international relations.
