In my opinion, it was the renewed interest in antiquity and general secularist openmindedness, as opposing religious dogma and doctrine that had prevailed in the Middle Ages. In the Renaissance, intellectuals realized there was so much they didn't know. In particular, Ibn Rushd (widely known as Averroes) was an Islamic Aristotelian who was extremely committed to interpreting rationalist Aristotelian philosophy, thus transgressing religious and cultural boundaries, in a true proto-Renaissance fashion. That's why it was so easy for Europeans to accept him, while his own compatriots resented him.

<span>The reason why some European Christians were able to understand and embrace both Pagan and Islamic ideals during the Renaissance era was due to the increasing openness of tolerance and focusing on the moral values that are taught as opposed to the specific religion that is teaching them.</span>

Why was Washington’s winter at Valley Forge a significant event?
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The particularly severe winter of 1777-1778 proved to be a great trial for the American army, and of the 11,000 soldiers stationed at Valley Forge, hundreds died from disease. However, the suffering troops were held together by loyalty to the Patriot cause and to General Washington, who stayed with his men.

Answer:

It had success such as Ethiopia's ability to remain independent and the Chilembwe insurrection inspiring the people; it also had it failures such as lack of technology and lack of unity. The conditions that led African peoples to resist colonial rule often emerged from longstanding grievances against colonial labor exploitation, taxation, racist and paternalist practices, arbitrary violence, and political illegitimacy. African states such as bribery and corruption, lack of democratic and participatory governance, insecurity, lack of justice and equality before the law, and illiteracy.

To what extent did feudalism contribute to the french revolution
Leto [7]

I can't really answer your question (as I don't really know enough about 18th century France), but I just want to clear up an (understandable) misconception about Feudalism in your question.

The French revolution was adamant and explicit in its abolition of 'feudalism'. However, the 'feudalism' it was talking about had nothing at all to do with medieval 'feudalism' (which, of course, never existed). What the revolutionaries had in mind, in my own understanding of it, was the legally privileged position of the aristocracy/2nd estate. This type of 'feudalism' was a creation of early modern lawyers and, as a result, is better seen as a product of the early-modern monarchical nation-state, than as a precursor to it. It has nothing to do with the pre-nation-state medieval period, or with the Crusades.

Eighteenth-century buffs, feel free to chip in if I've misrepresented anything, as this is mostly coming from my readings about the historiographical development of feudalism, not any revolutionary France expertise, so I may well have misinterpreted things.
