Andrew Carnegie (1835–1919) was an American industrialist who amassed a fortune in the steel industry and a major philanthropist in the 19th Century. By 1899 he established and owned Carnegie Steel Corporation of New York and sold it in 1901 to banker John Pierpont Morgan for $480 million and fully dedicated his time towards the expansion of his philanthropic work, including the establishment of Carnegie-Mellon University in 1904. Andrews fortune has since supported everything from the discovery of insulin to the dismantling of nuclear weapons and towards the creation of Pell Grants and Sesame Street.
The goal of the French Revolution was to give the lower class a say in the democracy.

Raphael’s School of Athens is a fresco that is in the Vatican. It was painted between 1509 and 1511. The fresco is a big example of the principles of the Renaissance because it focuses on human matters rather than Churches figures.
Humanism consisted of a shift toward individual worth, potential, and scholarly pursuits. There is no Christianity element, instead, Greek and Roman cultures are pictured like Aristotle and Plato that were important figures in education and advancement.
<em>If I were a settler in the American West, I would think Manifest Destiny is believable. This is because it’s such a huge leap for the country as they are getting about 2x the land they already have. I would be so shocked about it, since America is getting more land for farming, mining, etc... This would improve my living situation and money if I were there, because more land means more room to make money. I would be so grateful for Manifest Destiny at the time.</em>
