Answer:
It makes different time periods easier to recognize.
It properly separates different eras of social change, great political change, incredible discoveries that had international implications, major tragedy,etc.
It helps give a time period DEFINITION.
Explanation:
Instead of using dates...... which no one in the world can remember .... especially men, we use names for eras.
Renaissance is simply French for "rebirth", and it WAS a much, much brighter period of time.
It got brighter and brighter and was so dramatically different than a short few years ago that it was called "The Renaissance" during its own time period!
Time periods CAN change that quickly.
