Humanism and other major ideas
the crusade
the emergence of ancient Greece and roman ideas
the black death
killed a lot of the labour force
the crusade is a war between the muslims and the Christians for the holy land ( Jerusalem )
at the time the people has discovered more and more of the ancient Greece and roman books and papers, they knew more about their ideas
less labour force = the lords need more workers
the remaining workers can demand higher salary and better working conditions
the workers get richer and is able to afford the arts created during the renaissance (happened later)
the workers can afford a higher living standard and is more well fed
during the war different culture (muslim mainly ) spread to Europe
this allows the people at that time to know more bout other cultures and help create new art styles or new ideas during the renaissance
these ideas fuelled them to create new ideas such as humanism and the sun is the Center or the solar system
these ideas then inspired the renaissance man in their artworks and ideas, these ideas are widely used during the renaissance period.

the blimp
development of art and technology
short term causes
the development of art and technology helps people understand more about the world they live in, this also allows them to realise that the world is not how the church told them such as the earth is the centre of the universe and the earth is flat
this lead to the people not obeying the church's teachings exactly and start exploring new areas such as biology and chemistry
the flushing toilet is invented by sir alexander cumming and has been upgraded by sir john harrington, this model of the toilet has ever since been the model we used
the first working submarine is created by duch inventor Cornelis Drebbel is is originally meant to be used to explore the ocean but it is then widely developed for military uses
the blimp is invented by the french inventor Henri Giffard for the use of advertising and a bit of military uses, but it's cost is too expensive also the airplane has much better performance so they stopped producing the blimp. there is currently 25 blimps in the world left
rome gave birth to art masters such as Michelangelo and Raphael
the people during renaissance are inspired by the Greece idea of human's potentials and abilities are equal to the gods.
this also leads to the idea of humanism, as they started to focus less on the powerful god the church told them about and started to explore the world and human themselves
