Fall of Rome
We are living through a pandemic and are facing similar problems like they did back then with the plague. The major difference is thinking about how much technology and medicine that we have today and how much less the pandemic was because of it. One thing I think of is how much almost like hope and belief I had when this started that they'd make a vaccine and it would all be over. But back then I wonder how those people felt and if they had any kind of hope or reason to think things would be better other than just relying on their prayers. As we were talking about history in monday's class these true emotions and thoughts are hard to interpreted and passed along and it make a lot of things unknown.
