Renaissance

Europe became the leader due to 3 political factors (note that historically at this stage religion was completely intertwined with political states) and a handful of geo-economic factors. Islam had turned itself inwards after the destruction of Bagdad (1258) by the Mongols and focused more upon religious development than science and exploration, China stopped its outwards expansion and destroyed its exploring navy (1424), and Japan (after contact with Europe and the political meddling of the Catholic Church's Jesuits) sealed its borders in 1639. The first event eventually led to the final destruction and conquest of the Byzantine empire (1453) as the central Muslim authorities could not stop the Ottoman Turkish conquests. With fall of Byzantium the trade routes to the East were blocked (trade routes decribed by Marco Polo 1293) and Europe still wanted the spices and silks of the East. Along comes Christopho Columbo who did a great sales-pitch to the religious/conquest based new kingdom of Spain, and he sails to the Americas instead of Asia. Just as Europe expands west (1492) China ceased its expansion (1424) with just enough gap that there was no trade conflict. Europe is exploding with heretical ideas due to the printing press, which allows a huge expansion of knowledge and with the advent of Protestant faiths and the overseas land grabs on, every man and his dog suddenly wanted the potential wealth that new territory might have. So, ship designs got better and better, trade cartels became better organised and profitable, weaponry developed at a huge pace (a large part due to the Thirty Years War) and the only powers that could stop the European nations from gobbling the world had either turned their back (China, Japan) or were not developed enough to win a war of opposition. Finally, throw in a few diseases like smallpox and influenza to kill 30-50% of a resisting population and suddenly you have available land for exploitation. Just remember, even with all of these things in place it still tool Europe from 1453 (Fall of Byzantium) to 1799 (Death of the Tippoo Sultan) for Europe to really have complete dominance.

The hermandades, or "brotherhoods", were popular groups in towns that were given authority by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella. Acting as local police forces and judicial tribunals, they repressed violence with such savage punishments that they could be disbanded by 1948.

The Renaissance was very similar to Classical Art because they both had colour, and another aspect called perspective. Both of the art has motion that was believable and in motion.

Many wishing to seek an education with a religious context give serious thought to the many bible colleges around the country, but attendance seems to hinge primarily upon the same factor that influences application rates at other institutes of higher learning: employment and/or post-graduate transfer options. Simply put, some institutes of higher learning have a better reputation than others, and many prospective students and their families worry that bible colleges have a negative reputation amongst employers. This may not actually be the case, at least not in all situations.

Any post-graduate concerns are probably not worth losing sleep over, as the application process for most institutes lends little credence to which accredited institute granted the applicant his or her bachelor’s degree. The exception to this rule would be masters programs at highly sought after universities that have the luxury of turning away the majority of applicants each year.

Employment within the United States may not be severely handicapped by a degree from one of the many bible colleges, unless the employer is looking for employees that can handle international work. Simply put, some regions of the world frown on religion in the workplace, especially China. There may also be some concern over religious tones and influence within an office in other countries, even here in the United States, but that fear is usually not a decision making factor for companies with a multi-interview hiring process and a lot of structure.

Most potential employers will be more interested in the candidate and the quality of the education provided by the bible college the applicant attended rather than the fact that the school taught religion and/or from a certain point of view. Sadly, there are not too many top-tier bible colleges around the nation. If the choice is between Harvard and a non-ranked bible college, then Harvard would probably be the way to go from the standpoint of employment, so long as money was not an issue. Money is an issue in most cases, and it is worth noting that many bible colleges are surprisingly affordable. If the alternative is a two-year community college education or a four year degree from an accredited bible college, take the latter option in all cases.

The major political changes of the Renaissance were from the old Feudal System of the Middle Ages into a more flexible and liberal class system. The divisions consisted of the old rich, the new rich nobles, the middle class, and the lower middle class (The poor didn't count)
