You might not know anything about Andrew, especially if you are not familiar with American history.
Carnegie was inspired by the life of Andrew Carnegie. Andrew Carnegie was born in Scotland in 1835 and emigrated with his parents to the United States in 1848. Although he started his career as a telegraphist, his role as one of the major players in the rise of the United States’ steel industry made him one of the richest men in the world and an icon of the American dream.
Andrew Carnegie was also a benefactor and philanthropist; upon his death in 1919, more than $350 million of his wealth was bequeathed to various foundations, with another $30 million going to various charities. His endowments created nearly 2,500 free public libraries that bear his name: the Carnegie Libraries.
You can of course learn more about him, as there are many articles and books about him and his story.
During the game you will recruit and manage employees, expand your business, invest in real estate, produce and sell goods, and create transport chains across the United States; you may even work with important personalities of the era. Perhaps you will even become an illustrious benefactor who contributes to the greatness of your country through deeds and generosity!
The game takes place over 20 rounds; players will each have one turn per round. On each turn, the active player will choose one of four actions which the other players may follow.
The goal of the game is to build the most prestigious company, symbolized by victory points.

Du ved muligvis ikke noget om Andrew, især hvis du ikke er bekendt med amerikansk historie.
Carnegie blev inspireret af Andrew Carnegies liv.
Andrew Carnegie blev født i Skotland i 1835 og emigrerede sammen med sine forældre til USA i 1848.
Selvom han startede sin karriere som telegrafist, gjorde hans rolle som en af de største aktører i fremkomsten af USAs stålindustri ham til en af de rigeste mænd i verden og et ikon for den amerikanske drøm.
Andrew Carnegie var også en velgører og filantrop; efter hans død i 1919 blev mere end 350 millioner dollars af hans rigdom testamenteret til forskellige fonde, med yderligere 30 millioner dollars til forskellige velgørende organisationer.
Hans begavelser skabte næsten 2.500 gratis offentlige biblioteker, der bærer hans navn: Carnegie Libraries.
Du kan selvfølgelig lære mere om ham, da der er mange artikler og bøger om ham og hans historie.
Under spillet vil du rekruttere og administrere medarbejdere, udvide din forretning, investere i fast ejendom, producere og sælge varer og oprette transportkæder over hele USA; du kan endda arbejde med vigtige personligheder i æraen.
Måske bliver du endda en berømt velgørenhed, der bidrager til dit lands storhed gennem gerninger og generøsitet!
Spillet finder sted over 20 runder ; spillerne har hver en tur hver runde.
På hver tur vælger den aktive spiller en af fire handlinger, som de andre spillere kan følge.
Målet med spillet er at opbygge det mest prestigefyldte firma, symboliseret ved sejrspoint.
