Capitalism altered the balance of power in Europe by weakening feudal structures, allowing the rise of a powerful merchant class, and creating new opportunities through the Industrial Revolution. It encouraged independent wealth creation and reduced governmental control over economies. This shift led to the emergence of modern democracies where economic power influences political dynamics.
