Answer:

476 AD

Step-by-step explanation:

The Roman Empire officially ended in 476 AD with the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The first trace of the Black Death in Europe, also known as the bubonic plague, was recorded in 1347 AD, more than 800 years after the fall of the Roman Empire. The Black Death is believed to have originated in Asia and spread to Europe through trade routes, particularly the Silk Road. The pandemic caused widespread death and devastation in Europe, with estimates suggesting that it killed between 25-50% of the population.
