The Northern Renaissance could not have developed without the region's growing peace and prosperity, especially after the difficult 14th century. This allowed members of the elite to become the patrons of writers and artists. Then there was the invention of the printing press, which made the works of the writers from the past known to many more people, and this did much to propagate the values and beliefs of the Northern Renaissance. Changes in society, such as the decline in feudalism, meant a growing willingness to accept new ideas and beliefs. The rising urban elites and national monarchies in England and France were very willing to adopt the Renaissance's ideals.
