This is just a guess, and certainly a simplification, but I propose five reasons:
1. Use of gunpowder which made nation-states possible. Not sure if this applied to Italy but it surely did to Northern Europe which has always thrived on war. 2. The invention of the printing press, in 1440, which facilitated the dissemination of ideas.
3. The fall of Constantinople, in 1453, which, purportedly, resulted in Greek thinkers fleeing to the West.
4. Discovery of America, in 1492, and the resulting untold wealth in the coffers of Europe.
5. Copernican world view which, if nothing else, advanced humility among men. (Something it sorely needs today?)
