1 answer:

4 0

Just consider the number of Chinese characters. They number in tens of thousands and to be functionally literate you need to know between 3 to 4 thousand of them. So just imagine how hard is to fit that sheer number of characters anywhere. The other thing considering physical typesetting, Chinese characters are far more complex in shape and are much harder to create.

Florence, Italy, was a major trading port. It was easily accessible and Italy was rich in fertile lands. The Renaissance was also started there, as art, culture, and trade grew in Florence. You can draw Italy, and maybe draw a painter, someone in a ship coming to trade, key features of the Renaissance (Cathedrals), etc.
