The fifteenth century was a time of great change and progress in Europe. It saw the emergence of the Renaissance, a period of artistic, scientific, and cultural advancement. The printing press was invented during this time, revolutionizing communication and education. Exploration increased as Europeans sought to expand their empires around the world. In politics, nation-states began to form as monarchies consolidated power over their territories. The Hundred Years' War between England and France raged on for much of the century while religious reformers challenged traditional Catholic beliefs with new ideas about faith and spirituality. By the end of the century, Europe had become an increasingly complex place with many different cultures interacting with each other in ways that would shape history for centuries to come.
