Explanation: The Renaissance first appeared in Florence, Italy. It is considered a revival of ancient thought and philosophy. In translation, it means re-birth, and refers to the revival of humanism, natural laws, human figures as the center of art, light, perspective, etc. This was, among other things, possible due to the geographical location of Italy and Florence, which is located on the network of Mediterranean trade routes. Thus, new ideas, with commercial innovations, were easily accessible. The combination of new inventions as printers, with easily accessible ideas through trade routes, contributed to the expansion and strengthening of the Renaissance.
