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.

Ano ang mitolohiya at katangian nito?​
babunello [35]

Answer:

Ang pag-aaral ng mga alamat ay kilala bilang mitolohiya.

Paliwanag:

ang mitolohiya ay tumutukoy sa pag-aaral ng mga sagradong kwento ng isang kultura na tumatalakay sa iba`t ibang mga aspeto ng kalagayan ng tao tulad ng mabuti at masama. Ang mga kuwentong ito ay hindi totoo sapagkat ang mga nilalang na naroroon sa mga alamat na ito ay hindi naroroon sa katotohanan. Mayroong iba't ibang mga tauhang ginamit sa mga alamat na ito, kung minsan ang mga hayop at iba pang mga bampira ng pagsuso ng dugo atbp. Kaya't ang mga alamat na ito ay walang kaugnayan sa katotohanan.

How did social darwinism explain how society operates?
Savatey [412]
Social Darwinism explained the operation of society as "survival of the fittest."

People often associate the term "survival of the fittest" with Charles Darwin, but actually it was terminology that came from Herbert Spencer, the founder of what is known as Social Darwinism. (Spencer wouldn't have called it that - he and Darwin were rivals.)   Darwin used the term "natural selection" in his descriptions of biological evolution.  Spencer was unafraid to apply the same concepts to competition within the human species, contending that the stronger, fitter social or cultural groups will survive better than others and dominate over weaker groups.

When and how did the Nazis decide to murder the Jews under their control?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

During the invasion of Poland in 1939 the Nazis chose to put Jews under their control in camps.

Explanation:

Hitler envisioned a new Europe to pursue his <em>Lebensraum </em>plans to create a "living space" for the German people. Before 1939, Jews in Germany faced discrimination and harassment. It was not until the outbreak of war however, that the <em>Final Solution </em>for the eradication of Jews was enacted.
