Why and when did the world decide to invelt the nobel peace awards?

i like the nobel peace awards but wat were the reasons behind it. The "peace" was never shown amoung nations that had people recieveing awards and war still goes on.





what was the point?


one of m teachers told me but i forgot.|||Alfred Nobel developed explosives, such as dynamite, beginning around 1860. They were meant to be used for peaceful purposes, but, as so often happens, they were developed as weapons of war.


When Alfred Nobel saw the devastation and death caused by his work on battlefields, he decided to act on his better instincts. In his will, he left much of his fortune to establish a foundation supporting peacetime scientific efforts. This became the Norwegian Nobel Foundation. It awarded the first Nobel Peace Prize in 1901, and has continued to do so since that time. The Prize has been awarded to 94 persons and 19 organizations since 1901. It does not necessarily award the Prize annually.


The "world" had nothing to do with the establishment of the foundation.|||the nobel prize was created by alfred Noble, a scientist who invented dynamite. He invested all the money he was given as a reward in a foundation to reward people who had worked had to preserve peace|||The first Nobel Peace Prize was given in 1905. Alfred Nobel was the inventor of dynamite. He thought that if someone built a weapon that could destroy the whole world then people would not go to war. He died before the nuclear bomb was invented. But he had the hots for a sexy babe who turned him down and worked for world peace during her lifetime.|||Afred Nobel was the inventor of the Nobel peace prize. His life's work had been in the manufacture of explosives, and he is most famous for the invention of dynamite in 1867. This meant that he became an incredibly wealthy man.





As he realised the extent of what he had introduced to the world with the invention of dynamite he wanted to leave a legacy that was not destructive, but rather constructive. After his death when his will was read it caused quite a stir, especially the paragraph about a yearly portion of his estate being given





"鈥?to the person who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses. 鈥t is my express wish that in awarding the prizes no consideration be given to the nationality of the candidates, but that the most worthy shall receive the prize, whether he be Scandinavian or not." (Alfred Nobel was Swedish).





The intent was to use what had been a destructive invention to try and reduce war; but sadly although many people have been awarded the Nobel Prize for peace, human nature of greed, selfishness, pride, and anger is not so easily changed.
