The council responded to the Protestant Reformation and defined the dogmas

Share of the World's GDP, 1AD - 2008
Historically, the
world's balance of
wealth undertook
two major shifts, one
triggered by the
industrial revolution
(early 19th century)
and the other,
unfolding, triggered
by globalization (late
20th century).
Source: Data compiled by A. Maddison,
University of Groningen
.
Prior to the industrial revolution, the economic size of a nation was directly proportional to
its population, which was dominantly rural. Agricultural surpluses permitted an initial division
of labor and was used to support various crafts, administrative and service activities. The capacity
to grow food was therefore the foundation of wealth of nations, since the greater the food surplus
the larger the potential base for non-agricultural activities. Since China and India were mostly
relying on rice cultivation (the most productive form of agriculture) supported by extensive
irrigation systems, they achieved early in history the world's largest populations and
correspondingly the largest GDP. They jointly accounted for 50% of the world's GDP up to the
early 19th century. This situation would endure until the industrial revolution. The mechanization
of production brought by the industrial revolution broke the relationship between population and
economic output.
