The Black Death had longterm effects on Europe including a significant decline in population, leading to labor shortages and increased wages for workers. It also weakened the feudal system, as many serfs and peasants were able to demand better working conditions and higher pay. Additionally, the Black Death had a lasting impact on public health practices, leading to improvements in sanitation and hygiene. The devastation caused by the Black Death also contributed to social and economic upheaval, leading to changes in trade, agriculture, and political power.
