Why is the german artist albert dürer compared to the italian renaisance figure leonardo da vince

here's the answer :

just like Leonardo da Vinci,  Albrecht Der's interests expanded beyond art to inventions and science. He studied the Renaissance masters in Italy and helped spread new ideas into northern Europe.

hope this helps!

the fact that could also be added to column b is that during world war ii, specifically between the years 1941 and 1945, japan expanded its territory towards the indonesian territory in what was known later as part of the "pacific war". in that time, japan could conquer the philipines, singapore,   borneo, central java, malang, cebu, sumatra and various other islands of the area, therefore expanding its territory for a brief period of time.
