==Uses==
Dynamite is often used for construction, mining, and warfare. Construction projects that involve the use of dynamite are the construction of dams. Before dynamite was invented, miners had to use black powder and pickaxes but after the invention of dynamite, mining was a lot faster and more efficient. Alfred did not live to see the death and destruction it brought in [[World War One]].
===Construction===
Dynamite is often used in construction projects so workers don't have to dig or mine material that is in their way. Projects that use dynamite to speed up the construction process are the construction of dams and tunnels.
===Mining===
The invention of dynamite has increased the speed and efficiency of mining. Before dynamite was invented, miners used black powder and pickaxes to mine.
===Warfare===
Dynamite was potentially deadly in warfare. The war that first used Nobel's dynamite was [[World War One]]. Alfred didn't live to see the destruction it caused in the war and to realize that his conception about dynamite bring peace was completely wrong. Nobel's dynamite has been replaced by military dynamite, which only has approximately 60% of the strength of his dynamite.
