Both Andrew Carnegie Mellon and Henry Clay Frick were industrialists and business partners. Carnegie produced steel and Frick manufactured coke (necessary to produce steel). Frick eventually became chairman of Carnegie's company, but Carnegie made several attempts to force him to renounce to his position and disregarded him, and his opinions, on numerous occasions. This is, therefore, an example of the tensions that the industrialization of the U.S. entailed (there were companies that merged with, or sometimes bought, other companies; companies that used black workers and convicts as labor; companies whose workers went on strike; and hostility towards the wealthy industrialists as well as between them).
The Cold War shaped American foreign policy and political ideology, impacted the domestic economy and the presidency, and affected the personal lives of Americans creating a climate of expected conformity and normalcy. By the end of the 1950's, dissent slowly increased reaching a climax by the late 1960's.
As Europeans moved beyond exploration and into colonization of the Americas, they brought changes to virtually every aspect of the land and its people, from trade and hunting to warfare and personal property. European goods, ideas, and diseases shaped the changing continent.
