I don't know that it "died", but it's definitely on life support. Catholic priests seem to speak it a lot (I say "seem" because it's not my language, but they're not speaking English).
Plus Latin has been incorporated into many other languages in parts. All the Latin languages, of course (Spanish, Italian, even French), plus English. In bottany and taxonomy Latin is the goto language for naming everything.
So it's not so much dead as not spoken. It lives in many other languages like chocolate chips live in chocolate chip cookies.

with the tremendous amount of language that is latin based, how is it that it died?

--Latin verb: "boare" means "To cry aloud" First person, present indicative form is "boo"
That's why ghosts say "Boo!" It's "I AM CRYING ALOUD" but said with a single word.
....at least that's one theory.
