Answer:

He invested large sums of money in educational, scientific and cultural institutions.

Explanation:

Upon retirement, Andrew Carnegie created funds for the "improvement of humanity." Among the works that these funds helped to build, there are more than 3000 libraries throughout the English-speaking world.

Also, promptly we can name:

- The Carnegie Pittsburgh’s Institute, which houses a natural history museum, an art gallery, and a music auditorium.

- Carnegie Mellon University, which resulted from the founding of a group of technical schools.

- The Washington Carnegie Institution, created to encourage the study of natural and physical sciences.

- The Carnegie Music Hall in New York.

- The Endowment for International Peace, which sought the end of the war, among other works.

Currently, the Carnegie Foundation continues to operate with a much greater wealth than the 135 million dollars donated, with which it began its work. It is mainly dedicated to education, peace, momentum for developing countries and international cooperation.

How did Americas involvment in ww1 affect our economy
kvv77 [185]

Answer: The effect of WWI on the US economy was considerable. There are two effects that the war had on the US economy: short term, and long term. For the short term effect the US economy grew in the buildup to the war and during its prosecution. From 1915 the US made tons of loans to the UK to help them in their war effort.
