Best Answer

The wealth of princesses varied greatly from place to place and from time to time. In some places, a princess would have a dowry, so she could be attractive to a king to take as his wife, but she had no money of her own. In other places, a princess had money of her own. In a few places, sometimes a princess could expect to rule in her own right as the monarch of a nation, and she might be quite wealthy, indeed.

The rise of banking was one of the things that happened as the Middle Ages drew to an end. There were possibly banks in some market places at the end of the Middle Ages, but there certainly would have been none during most of the Middle Ages.


Was 1454 Middle Ages or renaissance?

Nearly all the histories I have read say that the Renaissance began before the Middle Ages ended, so there was some overlap. I think possibly all of them would have put 1454 into the Renaissance. The dates I have seen for the end of the Middle Ages range from 1400 to 1517. Most of them have been 1453, but a few have been 1492 or 1400. So some, but possibly not most, historians would put 1454 in the Middle Ages.

Would there have been any gold mines in the Middle ages?

Yes there would, if there is gold in the ground now there would have been gold in the ground then (the middle ages weren't that long ago!) Because gold reacts slowly, if at all, the gold that is on the earths surface now would have been there then. BUT not all the gold was mined, so in answer to your question, yes there were mines but different to the ones of today.


Why was hospitals and surgery important in the middle ages?

Actually in the Middle Ages, hospitals and surgery were very primitive. Their doctors were not certified, and they had no anesthetics, not even ether. It would have been important if they really had hospitals and surgery. Mostly, as far as I have heard, they would do a lot of bloodletting.
