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 much longer did the germans expect the war to last according to the telegram
Pachacha [2.7K]

The '' 'Zimmermann Telegram' '' was a telegram sent by Arthur Zimmermann, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the German Empire, on January 16, 1917 (during the First World War), to the ambassador of the land of clubs, the Count Heinrich von Eckardt. In it, the ambassador was instructed to propose a proposal for Mexico to betray the United States. It was intercepted by the British, and his made the United States go to war and eat the tail of the Germans.

The initial message included proposals for an affair between Mexico and the German Empire, while the latter would still try to remain silent with the United States. In the event that this policy screwed up, the diplomatic note suggested that Mexico should date the German Empire and launch a military attack against the United States.
