What bad things have come from the Renaissance era?
The power of individual monarchs greatly increased during the ‘Reniassance’ era, for example King Henry VIII of England greatly consolidated his power after the Reformation in england. Monarchys became absolute in a way that they had not been in the medieval era. It was the era when slavery, which had virtually died out in Europe during the medieval era, began to flourish again as slaves were needed to work in the new colonies founded in the Americas and the Caribbean. Opportunities for women to engage in trade and business dwindled during the Renaissance period, as women were squeezed out of many lucrative trades they had formerly worked in, like weaving for example.
