Who started Exxonmobil?

ExxonMobil was formed through the merger of two major oil companies: Exxon, which was originally part of John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil Company, and Mobil, which had its roots in the same company. Standard Oil was founded in 1870, and after its breakup in 1911 due to antitrust laws, its successor companies, including Exxon, emerged. Mobil was originally known as the Vacuum Oil Company before becoming part of the Mobil Oil Corporation. The merger that created ExxonMobil occurred in 1999.
