The Islamic Golden Age is the true cause behind the European Reinassance.

1) Introduction of paper.

2) Latin translations of the 12th century from Toledo and Sicily, former Islamic territories.

3) Higher education (Madrasas -> Universities)

4) Philosophical reforms of the church that made science legal (Averroism -> Scholasticism), paving the way to Secularism.
