Everyone got more educated and learned how optics worked

Travelling West enough to go East

Concluding that the world is round
Trade route to India was discovered

Resulted in Columbus discovering the Americas

Mathematics

Architecture
Used to build structures that gave them a different perspective on things. Example: chapels
Navigation
Used the position of the north star to calculate coordinates

Lack of knowledge when navigating resulted in them getting lost a lot.
