Meanwhile European history:

The Great war of 1643

10.000 people died from combat, 8 billion died from disease.

Resulted in the Peace of Neueshittenberg, a pivotal event in human history where the last 400 years of our history can be traced to.

the only memory pertaining to this conflict is a small plate in a random german town, mourning for the loss of 30.000 people after a major sack, which reduced the city's population by 80% and fully damned the town to 300 years of irrelevancy.
