D) An abundance of artists, architects, and scholars were a source of Florence's wealth and power. The families in power in the city-state of Florence put in a large amount of money in the arts and culture of Florence and pushed for intellectualism, which put Florence as the most prosperous city-state in Italy and one of the wealthiest areas in Europe at the time.
