In May, 1911, the Supreme Court ordered the dissolution of the Standard Oil Company for violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. The company was required to split into smaller corporations. The American Tobacco Company was similarly ordered to dissolve for antitrust violations later in that same month.
In January, 1912, New Mexico became the 47th state of the United States, and in February, 1912, Arizona became the 48th state.
The famous sinking of the Titanic occurred in April, 1912.
