They lacked central control and became independent states. The city-states were on the sea, centers for trade and commerce, new ideas traveled from their geographic location, and they became the middlemen of Europe.

The first of the dynasty,  Giovanni di Bicci de' Medici, would begin to patron the arts during this Renaissance.

During the late thirteenth century, Venice was the most prosperous city in all of Europe. At the peak of its power and wealth, it had 36,000 sailors operating 3,300 ships, dominating Mediterranean commerce. Marco polo, among the most famous Italian merchants, was known for traveling the silk road to Asia. He brought back luxury goods including silk, spices, and porcelain which further ignited desires of Europeans to explore and conquer during the Age of Exploration.]]> 2018-12-08 17:29:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kramirez2021/x1zdckj14jgu/wish/312531229 Economic ties to the Catholic Church kramirez2021 https://padlet.com/kramirez2021/x1zdckj14jgu/wish/312540721 Catholicism during the reformation, had economic ties to other catholic countries including England ,  France, Spain, Portugal, etc. this asserted the fact the church at this time still dominated over every aspect of economic, political, and social life in Europe. These economic restraints gave many countries desires to break away and cut ALL ties with the Pope.

- Republic of Genoa

- Rome, the papal states
- Naples, Kingdom of two Sicilies
- Venice, Venetian Republic

$- Venice, Genoa, and Pisa (in the republic of Florence) used their strategic location in the Mediterranean sea to control the European trade with Middle East and Asia.

$- Florence, Rome, Naples, and Milan, thrived as manufacturing and market centers.

$-The economic power of these city- states, combined with Rome as the center of catholic power, made Italy a center of culture and luxury in Western Europe during the 14th and 15th centuries.

This prevented christians from lending money with interest. Since this was a catholic enforced rule, this gave jews (considered a minority) the perfect time to take advantage of the banking industry. As banking emerged into a field of finance, many bankers began to offer credit and loans so that merchants could borrow money for purchasing wares to sell, then would pay it back to bankers with interest. This can be an example of early Capitalism]]> 2018-12-08 19:04:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kramirez2021/x1zdckj14jgu/wish/312543989 Indulgences & Tax kramirez2021 https://padlet.com/kramirez2021/x1zdckj14jgu/wish/312548371 Sale of indulgences: a payment to the Catholic Church which would reduce the amount of punishment you would undergo for sins, and would save you  from purgatory.

Tithe tax: The catholic church had a tax of its own, Tithe means “one-tenth”, because people were supposed to give the Church one-tenth of all the income they earned.

As Philip II was a Catholic and part of the Netherlands was protestant the Dutch resisted not only the new taxation, but also the intolerance and oppressive methods of imposing Catholicism by means of the Inquisition. A long eighty years lasting war began. Feeling of the national identity developed in the Netherlands during this war.
In 1581, the Union of Utrecht proclaimed independence from Spain. The new nation suffered a series of reverses in the war, but finally in 1648 the Spanish recognized the sovereignty of the Republic. The Dutch Republic remained until 1794 at least nominally, under the power of the Austrian throne of Habsburg.

The trade brought European manufactures goods and alcohol to Africa and the Americas, and products such as lumber fur, gold, sugar, peanuts, beans, potatoes, tobacco, chocolate, vanilla, and corn to Europe.

Europe, on the other hand, gave the americas a handful of diseases including smallpox, influenza, and measles.

Spain, along with Portugal, were the two main powers competing during this age of exploration.

In 1493, during his second voyage, Columbus founded Isabela, the first permanent Spanish settlement in the New World, on Hispaniola. After finding gold in recoverable quantities nearby, the Spanish quickly overran the island and spread to Puerto Rico in 1508, to Jamaica in 1509, and to Cuba in 1511.  The motivations for colonial expansion were trade and the spread of the Catholic faith through indigenous conversions. Their first settlement in North America, St. Augustine, was claimed by Ponce de Leon in the 1500s.

Decline: Although Spain was said to have the most advance navy fleet, the Spanish Armada was defeated in 1588 by Elizabeth I thanks to the Protestant wind. After this time period, we wont really hear much of Portugal or Spain being main powers as England and France will emerge.

Portuguese fleets began probing toward Africa in search of gold, they reached the Senegal river and brought home a cargo of black Africas who were sold as slaves in Europe. In 1471 the Portuguese discovered a new source of gold along the southern coast of west Africa.They established contact with the states in Africa. To facilitate trade in gold, ivory, and slaves the Portuguese leased land from local rulers and built stone along the coast. Vasco da Gama was a Portuguese explorer and the first European to reach India by sea.

It was created in 1602 and lasted until 1800. it is considered to be one of the first and most successful international corporations. During the 16th century, the spice trade was growing throughout Europe but it was mostly dominated by the Portuguese. The shift in power began in the early 17th century when the dutch seized a Portuguese fort in the Maluccas and then gradually pushed the Portuguese out of the spice trade. When the Dutch enlarged their trade routes to include southeast Asia, they turned modern Indonesia into the Dutch East Indies, which was incredibly profitable as well and helped the dutch create the strongest economy in Northern Europe at the time especially with their establishment of the bank in Amsterdam.

Their Decline: the Dutch East India company began to decline, starting with a decrease in trading with . japan and the loss of the silk trade with china after 1666. In 1672 the third anglo dutch war disrupted trade with Europe and in the 1680s, other European trading companies began to grow and increase the pressure on the Dutch East India company.

Ex:
- Virginia Company: established the first english settlement in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607

Joint-stock companies supported the capitalist economic system as it was an example where individuals could invest for themselves. Protestants coming to new world for religions freedom would NEVER be funded by state, joint stock companies would allow them to go by funding them with their own money.

This decision gave monetary and economic benefits for Henry. 
Henry took over England's monasteries, which owned huge treasures, including gold and silver religious objects as well as valuable land. The English people had been required to pay income to these monasteries, and this substantial income now went to the government. The sale of monastic lands and objects also provided the royal treasury with huge profits, and shifted new wealth to the nobles. This allowed the nobles, in time, to assume more influential roles in England's affairs.

These plantation economies relied solely on africans as they were immune to diseases, unlike the fragile natives, which made them the perfect labor source. First, Europe would provide guns, textiles, rum, and manufactured goods to Africa. Then Africans themselves would enslave other African Americans to be shipped off as slaves in the west indies and North America.

- Spices continued to come to Europe through arabs but it was too expensive

- In addition to the potential profits to be made from the spice trade, many europeans explorers and conquerors did not hesitate to express their desire for material grain in the form of gold and other precious metals

- In the end result economic power shifted  within Europe from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic states. In Asia, the Portuguese, Spanish, and Dutch competed for control of trade routes and trading stations.

The first settlement, Jamestown, was established for the sole purpose of being an economic colony. However the colony of only men barely survived because of the constant attacks by natives and malaria. Along with that it wasn’t making very much money.  After being introduced tobacco, Jamestown quickly made money and became a plantation colony dependent on slave labor.
