2 Political Changes Prior Condition: Most of Europe Feudalistic, with few exceptions: Holy Roman Empire England Papal States – Ruled by pope in Italy Spain and Portugal ruled by Moors (Umayyad Caliphate)

3 Initial Condition (cont)
Power of monarchs very limited: “Zero Sum Game” Nobles - castles and knights Kings - limited $ -- Pope Boniface VIII issued Bull Unum Sanctum, claiming overlordship

4 Political Transformations
New military tech (crossbows, firearms) eliminated armor and castles as advantages: Rise of partially independent trading cities Great Western Schism undermined pope Constitutionalism - Magna Carta

5 Ending condition Kings able to assert more power from nobles, but not unlimited: Catholic Church lost most of power Bourgeoisie gained power – became dominant in some areas (i.e. City-States)
