उत्तर
The Renaissance, Reformation, and the new geographical discoveries gradually ushered in the modern age.

The Reformation led to the establishment of Protestant church and Catholic Reformation which rid the churches of many evils and corruption. Religious dogmas and superstitions gave way to a scientific temper and spirit of inquiry among people. The new geographical knowledge led to the discovery of new lands which opened new opportunities for trade, travel, and further voyages and discoveries.
All these factors gradually ushered in the modern age. These were logically followed by the Industrial Revolution.
