do you agree that internal factors were the primary factor for the decline of Venice? EYA.
-state yr stand [i agree... to a large extent]
-corruptcy, complacency, incompetent leaders
-external factors: ottoman empire, losing out to larger states as venice had no overlords, lost of coastal regions to ottomans, discovery of new trade route by Portugese, new trade rivals from English and Dutch.
-conclusion.

if this question comes out for prelims ss paper, i'll be the happiest girl alive.
