It's an interesting comparison, because the greek city-states were also born after a middle age, called Greek Dark Ages, which happened after the fall of the Mycenean civilization. Similar to the middle ages happened after the fall of the Roman Empire. It's almost 1:1, like hystory repeating itself.

Fun Fact. During the 1300s, The wealth contained just within the city of florence (not the state, not even the wealth contained in the florintine lands, but literally the wealth inside the city limits) was much greater than all of the wealth contained in elizabethan england, nearly 200 years later. And that's just one city. Milan grew to about 200 000 people, a ludicrous number for the time. If I recall correctly, out of 7 european cities with over 100 000 people, 5 were located in the italian peninsula. In fact, I would rather place the golden age of italy at around 1300-1450. A ton of wealth and foreing strenght was amassed by the various italians. In fact it was so economically advanced, that the fall of the bardi and the peruzzi bank (due to english refusing to pay debts) caused a massive economic crisis which florence, through good economic backup was able to get through. The usual time frame of the renaissance 1400-1600 actually seems to be more famous because that is when foreigners received benefits of it. For italy, that was a very bad time actually, the italian wars destroying the country practically.

At the end of 13th century, the 6 Priori of the city of Florence (the government of the Republic, that were in charge for just 2 months) could freely use, without the vote of the Counseil of 100 (the legislative organ) of a sum up to 2000 gold Florins. So the Republic could afford to spend, with little control, up to 12.000 gold Florins/year. Those were the "pocket money" of the Republic. To say of how much it was, at the time only three states in Western Europe could afford to mint gold coins. Genoa, Florence and Venice.

As for the largest cities in Europe, there were Naples, Florence, Milan, Venice, Sarai, Paris, Prague, London, Constantinople, Brugge and Ypres. It is said that only Sarai, Constantinople, Paris and perhaps Florence had more than 100 thousand

Economists have estimated the GDP per capita of Renaissance Italy to be between 3000 and 3500$ (-> in 2011 dollars). The other big European powers like France, Germany, Spain and the UK oscillated between 1000 and 2000$. The remaining great powers like China and India between 1000 and 1500$, more or less. (for comparison's sake, Italy under emperor Augustus produced around 1500$ per capita) That's a huge difference in an era when economies could barely get past subsistence. And, on top of those GDP figures, there was the accumulated wealth that you mentioned.

The Renaissance actually started after the Black Death in the mid to late 14th century when Late Medieval Europe’s feudal system slowly disappeared and a large, independent and rich middle class appeared all over Europe. But the first rebirth of Europe happened with Charlemagne and then the second rebirth in the 12th century. All of these Renaissance’s main reason for their creation was the growth of Europe’s population which led to a need for trading networks and again, the growth of a rich middle class of merchants

It's not enough to just talk about then, you should bring back their ways of thinking and undertandment of the world. You need to fully believe and live by their principles. For exemple, Greeks had a hierarchal view of the universe as Kosmos, everything must have a cause, and must be organized. In daily live it means to never do something just because of your feelings, every action must be guided by higher principles, a respect for authority and organization. They also search for Areté, Virtue, or supreme excellence. If everything has a cause and a authority, than we should always act searching for perfection, thinking " What is the most excelent action? What is the best?". If they paint, or build a sculpture, they would not think about their feelings, or to express their identity, or to subvert expectations, they would think "What is the most beautiful? How can I represent the most excelent idea through this work of art?". And they concluded that Unity, Goodness, Beauty and Knowlege are the highest principles, that these are the divine traits that all men should follow as a bases for their actions, and that those are the principles that define everything that exists in a hierarchical manner. Men should not search for empty pleasure( Hedonia), but for comtemplation of truth ( Eudaimonia). Romans had the doctrine of Officilis, Moral Duties, a man should not do just what he likes, but what he must do, in the name of his family, his ancestors, his society, for the Common Good. Our modern culture is the oposite of all that, we teach people to be individualists who just think about thenselves, hedonists who just search for empty pleasure, relativists who don't have any principles and don't believe in truth, that life has no meaning, is random and chaotic, to be revolutionaries, deny and subvert all standarts and authorities, to hate their ancestors, destroy their statues and put your feelings ahead of every action. That's why modern art is pure trash, our buildings are ugly as hell, our musics just talk about sex and drugs, our youth is alienated and our culture is pure degeneracy.

Unfortunately that which gave rise to the Renaissance also played a part in pushing Italy out of the great power category. The goal of Medici diplomacy was to ensure that no city state grew too powerful so as to dominate the others. This worked really well in peace time. Commerce and the arts flourished. But sadly it also ensured that when France and Spain came a plundering, they could not be withstood. After the renaissance Italy became little more than a battleground for the other European powers

Maybe it should be noted that the italian city-states were prominent and wealthy well before the crusades, maybe even as far back as the fall of rome, but they were major movers and shakers before 1000AD as well.

Since Europeans already had the classics and natural philosophies (sciences) of ancient Greece & Rome, why not revive the arts and aesthetics as well? Thus the Italian Renaissance kicked off; not as a rebirth of society but as a continuation of innovations that have been going on in late medieval times. In the mind of the Renaissance Italians, building the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing

It is misleading to discount how much influence the Byzantines had on Western Europe's introduction to the classics. To be honest, Western Europe received many of those classics, from the Byzantines before the Crusades. However, Arabic commentators helped Western scholars understand the works of Aristotle since Aristotle was known for being terse and difficult to understand. Stil great video. The sources for the information I received are below. E. B. Fryde (2000) The early Palaeologan renaissance (Brill) Hyman and Walsh (1973) Philosophy in the Middle Ages, Indianapolis.
