Answer:

A) economic growth and political stability

Explanation:

After the middle ages and during 1400s to the 1800s, following a new system  of government in Florence, its strategic location, the many construction commissions and emergent opulent families of merchants and bankers all in part, led to a very strong economy, based on money, trade and banking.

This economic boom, its attendant show of wealth and stable political environment made Florence a natural melting point for the European intelligentsia of that era leading to a surge in artistic, literary, and scientific investigation in the region.

This culminated in Florence becoming an important seat of the renaissance a period of cultural, artistic, political and economic “rebirth” in Europe spanning the period between the 14th century and the 17th century.
