what were the social, economic, and political changes that most contributed to the rise of Florence and the ideas of Machiavelli
MAXImum [283]
The development of Florence was due to its strategic location, being a meeting point of several cultures and having adequate access to the sea. The specificity of the region, the cosmopolitan character of the place and the richness of commerce promoted an intense artistic and cultural flourishing. The work of Machiavelli, in this sense, fits in this historical space, since it fosters an ode to civil government.
