Answer: John D. Rockefeller and Leland Stanford.

Explanation:

John D. Rockefeller who was one of the wealthiest men of his time, was inspired by Andrew Carnegie's philantrophic ventures so much so that he gave away over $500 million to various causes such as education and scientific ventures. Bear in mind that this figure is unadjusted for inflation which means in today's dollars he gave away tens of billions.

Leland Stanford who founded Stanford University along with his wife, donated most of his wealth as well in honor of his son who passed away.

How are Ancient Greek architecture and modern architecture<br> similar?
GrogVix [38]
Greek architecture, one the earliest forms of architecture style. The Greek architects perfected and refined the use of columns, primarily in temples. There are three types of column styles based on the three main Greek Orders of architecture: Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. These styles of column design and architecture were adapted by the Romans, and serve as the basis of everything known as Classical architecture today. The Greeks having the first true form of democracy which America would later adopt has a true influence on Americas Capital buildings. For example the White House and Capital Building have columns on the front, and Greek was known from their columns on there temples.
Parthenon has influenced modern architecture in many ways. First, many political buildings today are made from marble or a material that looks similar to marble to represent wealth. Next, political buildings and libraries sometimes have columns to support the roofs of the buildings. Lastly, the metopes and friezes of the buildings are usually heavily decorated just like in the ancient Parthenon


It is clear that Greek architecture has an influence on the design of today’s buildings although it is no longer present at the vanguard of modern architecture as modern architects are attempting to steer away from classical and renaissance design influence.
We may say that ancient Greek architecture has provided not only many of the staple features of modern western architecture, but it has also given the world truly magnificent buildings which have literally stood the test of time and continue to inspire admiration and awe. Many of these buildings - the Parthenon, the Temple of Athena, the volute of an Ionic capital - have become the instantly recognizable and iconic symbols of ancient Greece.

Greeley [361]
The women of the Seneca Falls Convention created a document based on the Declaration of Independence created by American colonists during the 1700's. In this document, the women outlined what rights and beliefs they have about women in American society. They took some of the famous language used in the Declaration of Independence to create the document. A perfect example of this would be the rewording of the preamble. The women changed the phrase "all men are created equal" (from the Declaration of Independence) to "all men and women are created equal>"
