Question

similarities between vedic age and present day

Answer 1

There are really no similarties between these two areas. As you're text book might read 'This was a era for Europe'. There were no wars durning this period and monarchy pretty much ended. The rebirth although started in Florence, Italy because of there wealth from controlling the Mediterrainen at the time. The richest family might have been the medici family also.

Hope this will help u.
