It was called a monopoly because if you wanted kerosen, most likely you would have to get it from one of Rockefellers refiners. He supplied kerosene by tank cars that brought the fuel to local markets, and tank wagons then delivered to retail customers, bypassing everybody else.
an important experece/event in john d. rockefellers life was creating the oil refinery

Rockefeller died about 72 years ago
Andrew carnagies steel company. john d. rockafellers standered oil company. and that's all i can think of haha.
The Rockefellers created the oil business... and john Rockefeller was the richest man... a long time ago. Very rich and influential people in America, rumoured to be senior members of the illuminati.
The noblesse oblige of the rockefellers is inspiring.
