Which situation contributed most to the beginning of the Renaissance?(1) Strong rulers

The beginnings of Renaissance thought.

Explanation:

The Renaissance is a movement that began in Italy and spread throughout Europe. The reason why this event took place in Italy is due to its geographical position and developed trade. The development of science, art, and trade was encouraged in Italy. Such circumstances have led to contacts with other overseas peoples, which has led to the suppression of prejudice and the “shifting of boundaries” in human heads. Such circumstances made Florence and Venice the main foci of Renaissance thought. The powerful Italian Medici family also gave the impetus of the Renaissance. They financed artists and trade campaigns, which was an important factor in the spread of the Renaissance.
