The correct response is:
the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the Crusades
The fall of the Western Roman Empire led to a power vacuum in Italy, allowing local rulers and merchant families to rise to power and establish city-states. The Crusades also played a significant role by increasing trade and commerce, leading to the wealth and influence of Italian city-states such as Venice, Genoa, and Florence.
