Volcanic eruption that blocked out the sun for 18 months causing crop failures and widespread famine was the worst global disaster in history

536AD was the start of 18 months of solid darkness caused by a mysterious fog

Harvard professor believes this is the worst year in the entirety of human history

Triggered a century of famine, crop failure, cold weather, disease and death

Bubonic plague, famine, war and flu pandemics have made some periods of human history infamous for death and suffering but one year stands above the rest in terms of misery; 536AD.

According to research from a Harvard professor, it is a prime candidate for the unfortunate accolade of the worst year in the entirety of recorded history.

Europe, the Middle East, and parts of Asia were plunged into 18 months of solid darkness by a mysterious fog.

It caused snowfall in China, continental-scale crop failure, extreme drought, famine and disease throughout most of the northern hemisphere.

The bleak year was triggered by a cataclysmic Icelandic eruption, scientists say, and was an ominous omen for a bleak century of suffering and death.

This list of volcanoes in Iceland includes 130 active and extinct volcanic mountains, of which 18 have erupted since human settlement of Iceland began circa 900 CE.

A volcano erupted 72,000 years ago and killed all but 4,000 to 5,000 breeding couples. A volcano erupted in 1815 in Indonesia and caused "1816 year without a summer" But we only had a billion people then. If that happened today, billions of people will die.

During a Grand Solar Minimum, the reduction in the magnetosphere of the sun and the earth allows more cosmic rays to strike the earth. In the past increases in cosmic rays have been correlated with increased earthquakes and volcanoes.
