Explanation: the picture on the left corner relates to the The Republican Party (also called GOP (for "Grand Old Party"))which is one of the two major political parties in the United States.
Rockefeller became a lifelong member of the then-new Republican Party, and a strong supporter of Abraham Lincoln and the party’s abolitionist wing.


The General Education Board was a philanthropy which was used primarily to support higher education and medical schools in the United States, and to help rural white and black schools in the South, as well as modernize farming practices in the South.
The Board was created by John D. Rockefeller and Frederick T. Gates in 1902. Rockefeller gave it $180 million.

The third picture from the left relates to the University of Chicago.
The University of Chicago was created and incorporated as a coeducational, secular institution in 1890 by the American Baptist Education Society and a donation from oil magnate and philanthropist John D. Rockefeller on land donated by Marshall Field.


The Sherman Antitrust Act is a landmark federal statute on competition law passed by Congress in 1890. It prohibits certain business activities that reduce competition in the marketplace, and requires the United States federal government to investigate and pursue trusts, companies, and organizations suspected of being in violation.The Sherman Antitrust Act was named after its author, Senator John Sherman, an Ohio Republican, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, who was also Rockefeller's colleague.
In 1911, the Supreme Court of the United States found Standard Oil Company of New Jersey (which was founded by John D. Rockefeller) in violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act.The court ruled that the trust originated in illegal monopoly practices and ordered it to be broken up into 34 new companies.
