How did the discovery of alum in Italy lead to the rise of the Medicis?

History

Answer:

The discovery of Alum deposits gave the Medicis a monopoly on the market for Alumen throughout Italy and much of Europe.

Explanation:

Alum was essential in dyeing fabrics across the European continent, mainly in Florenza, Italy. However, the only nation that possessed this sub-country was Turkey that traded it at high prices. The Medici family, however, discovered deposits of alum in 1461 and established a system of exploration, extraction and sale of the substance that created a monopoly within the market. The whole of Italy bought this product from Medicis, as well as much of Europe, which resulted in the rise of the Familia Medici power throughout Europe.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The different leaders at the Paris Peace Conference after the first World War each had different goals based on how their countries fared in the war and their ideas for the future.

President Woodrow Wilson of the United States ⇒  lasting peace and justice

President Wilson wanted lasting peace and justice after the war which led him to propose his famous ''14 points''.

Prime Minister Orlando of Italy ⇒  territories promised earlier to his country.

Italy had already been on the side of Germany and Austria-Hungary but were tempted to the allied side by promises of land and so the Prime minister wanted that land.

Prime Minister David Lloyd George of Britain ⇒ punishment for Germany

The British did not suffer much territorial devastation during the war but did lose a lot of men. Prime minister George therefore wanted Germany punished for this.

Prime Minister Clemenceau of France ⇒ money to rebuild his country

Prime minister Clemenceau wanted to punish Germany as well but his immediate concern was to source money to rebuild France which had been devastated the most in the war as the entirety of it in the west had been fought on French soil.
