The Italian city-states thrived during the Renaissance due to their strategic geographical location, which facilitated trade across Europe and the Mediterranean. They developed robust economies based on commerce, banking, and manufacturing, particularly in textiles and luxury goods. Additionally, political structures that encouraged competition and cultural innovation fostered an environment where art, science, and Humanism flourished, attracting talent and investment. This combination of trade, economic diversity, and cultural advancement made the city-states centers of wealth and influence.

Why did people form city-states?

A nomad tribe settled on a patch of arable land with a water supply and a hill (acropolis) on which to establish a fortress to defend themselves from more nomads and other settled neighbours. As they became prosperous, houses were established around the hill, eventually walled to protect them from invaders, and so maintain their safety and independence. Thus there was a small self-contained community which jealously maintained its independence, an so we call them city-states.

Why have ruins of Pompeii been so well preserved?

The Roman city of Pompeii was situated on the western coast of the Italian peninsula, south of Rome. It was a prosperous city in the Roman empire. In 79 AD CE, Pompeii was the victim of an eruption of the nearby volcano of Mt. Vesuvius. The lava and ashes of this volcano destroyed the people of Pompeii but not the structures and art of the city. These same ashes and solidified lava preserved much of this city and smaller nearby ones. This preservation has given archaeologists a very clear picture of what life was like in this city.
