The Nobel family then returned to Sweden to continue their production there. His older brother then turned to work in the construction field, while the other brother, Alfred, worked as engineers in an explosives factory. After work, Alfred Nobel did innovation experiments for explosives.

He later started a factory and there were several explosions while working. In one of them, his brother also died. The factory was closed by the Swedish government. He then carried out covert experiments and found a safer and easy-to-use explosive called dynamite. He also received a patent for this.

He built factories around the world and made huge profits, but by the end time of the life, he had been very disappointed. Because of his dynamite, a huge massacre is taking place. So he was motivated to do a lot of social work later on. He had deposited $ 9 million in a Swedish bank. He had died in 1896 on the dining table in his home in Italy. According to his last will, the interest on his money in the Bank of Sweden should be divided among five persons dedicated to human welfare in five areas.
