HERITAGE - the Nobel brothers

The Nobel brothers, Alfred and Ludvig, were Swedish industrialists and philanthropists known for their contributions to science, industry, and humanitarian causes.
The Nobel family's wealth came largely from the oil industry in Baku, which is in modern-day Azerbaijan, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Their company, Branobel (short for "Bröderna Nobel," meaning "Nobel Brothers" in Swedish), was one of the largest oil companies in the world at the time and was instrumental in establishing Baku as one of the major oil-producing regions globally.
Branobel made significant investments in oil exploration, drilling, refining, and transportation infrastructure in Azerbaijan. They built pipelines, refineries, and storage facilities, contributing to the modernization and industrialization of Baku and the surrounding area.
