The '''United States of America''', or the '''United States''', is a country in central North America.

Originally founded as the '''Thirteen Colonies of British America''', what would become the United States was founded by [[Britain|British Empire]] as a part of it's New World holdings, before becoming independant following the [[American Revolutionary War]].

==History==
===Presidency===
[[George Washington]] served as the commander of the [[Continental Army]] in the [[American Revolutionary War]] (during which time he was allied with the [[Assassin]] [[Connor]]) from 1775 to 1783 and was the first President of the United States from 1789 to 1797.<ref name="AC II - Glyphs 2 and 3">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' – [[Glyphs|Glyphs 2 ("Sixty-Four Squares") and 3 ("Descendants")]]</ref>

By the end of the American Revolution, Washington had come into the possession of the [[Third Apple|Third Apple of Eden]], which was passed on throughout the American Presidency from that point on.<ref name="AC II - Glyphs 2 and 3"/>
===World War Era===
During the World Wars the Assassins influence of America changed to a Templar influence. The greatist example of this is during WW2 when the Templars [[Winston Churchill ]]and [[Franklin D. Roosevelt |Franklin D. Roosevelt ]]worked along side their "enemy" [[Adolf Hitler ]]to profit and spread the Templar influence in the world through arms deals and medical supplies amking the world more dependent on Templar controlled companies.

===Assassinations===
On 14 April 1865, [[John Wilkes Booth]] plotted and executed the murder of President [[wikipedia:Abraham Lincoln|Abraham Lincoln]]. His attack was successful, though his accomplices failed to take out the other two targets. Booth tried to escape but was eventually cornered and shot in the confusion. Unknown to all the others, Booth was actually killed by the [[Assassins]], as his plans were a threat to the world.<ref name="ac2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' - [[Glyphs|Glyph]]</ref>

On November 22, 1963, President [[John F. Kennedy]] was [[Assassination of John F. Kennedy|assassinated]] in Dallas, Texas by [[Lee Harvey Oswald]], a [[Templars|Templar]] agent. Kennedy was killed because he wanted to make a joint mission to the Moon – where a [[Fifth Apple|Piece of Eden]] was located – with the [[Russia]]ns.<ref name="ac2"/>

===Philadelphia Project===
In 1943, [[Abstergo Industries]] experimented with the possibilities of invisibility and time-traveling, resulting in the [[Philadelphia Project]]. Through the use of a [[Piece of Eden]], they managed to send a ship to the future, where it stayed for approximately 18 minutes before returning to the normal timeline.<ref name="Assassin's Creed - Conference Room E-mail">''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' – [[E-mails#Conference room e-mail|Conference Room E-mail]]</ref>

===The Great Purge===
During the late 20th century, [[Daniel Cross]] lived in [[Philadelphia]], where he lived a life of hallucinations, drugs and alcohol. After a heavy night of drinking, he tried to assassinate a man he thought was a [[Templars|Templar]], but was taken away by [[Hannah Mueller]] before he could do any harm. She took him to an Assassin camp, where he met with [[Paul Bellamy]], though he didn't stay long and went back to his apartment to get his medication. When he and Hannah arrived, he realized he didn't have any medication left.<ref name="ac:tf">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]''</ref>

Paul Bellamy also made his way to the apartment, having realized why Daniel Cross was having hallucinations, he told of his great-grandfather, [[Nikolai Orelov]]. Daniel had another hallucination and realized he had to meet [[The Mentor (2000)|The Mentor]].<ref name="ac:tf"/>

When he finally met the Mentor, and was handed a [[Hidden Blade]], the experiments Abstergo had used him for started giving him the urge to assassinate the Mentor, which he did.<ref name="ac:tf"/>

After that, he traveled back to Abstergo Industries' lab in Philadelphia, where the Templars got all the information they needed to deal a major blow to the Assassins from him. He was then placed in the [[Animus]] to explore his ancestor's memories.<ref name="ac:tf"/>
===Modern Day (Late 20 - Early 21 century)===
Ever since the World War era the Assassins began losing influence on the American people until finally, both the goverment and economy of the once Assassin influenced nation was controlled by the Templars.

===DIA satellite accident===
In the early 21st century, the [[DIA satellite accident]] took place at [[Wikipedia:Denver International Airport|Denver International Airport]]. The precise nature and time of the accident remain unclear, but Abstergo lost one of their [[Second Apple|Pieces of Eden]] in the accident, which caused a delay for the launch of the [[Eye-Abstergo]] satellite as they had planned to.<ref name="Assassin's Creed - Conference Room E-mail"/>

Also, in 2012, a team of Assassins was based in [[Denver]].<ref name="ac:bh">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref>

===Modern Day===
In modern day, the United States goverment and economy is controlled by Templars even with the Assassin upbringing of this nation. The Templars have taken over the war industry and many large companies, and to spread the Templar influence the goverment has declared many needless wars, for only the Templars to profit from.

'''Russia''', officially known as the '''Russian Federation''', is a state located in northern [[wikipedia:Eurasia|Eurasia]].

===Russian Revolution===

===Under Stalin's rule===
After Lenin died in 1924, he was eventually succeeded by [[Joseph Stalin]], who was secretly a Templar. Under his rule, the Soviet Union became a corrupt and decrepit state,<ref name="Assassin's Creed II">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref> presenting the capitalistic economies of the Western powers- a system created by the Templars - in a more positive light.<ref name="ACBH Rifts">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' - [[Rifts]]</ref>

However, on 5 March 1953, Stalin was eventually killed by the Assassins.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II"/>

===Dissolution of the Soviet Union===
During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the head of state of the Soviet Union [[wikipedia:Mikhail Gorbachev|Mikhail Gorbachev]] wanted to reform the country, through his policy of "[[wikipedia:Perestroika|perestroika]]". The Templars realized that Gorbachev did not share their interests, so they had the [[wikipedia:United Kingdom|United Kingdom]]'s Prime Minister [[Margaret Thatcher]] contact [[Boris Yeltsin]], after which Yeltsin started to stand up to communism and gain popularity. In December 1991 the Templars called a secret meeting in Belavezhskaya Forest, and later that month Gorbachev was unseated and Yeltsin became the head of the newly-formed Russian Federation.<ref name="ACBH Rifts"/>
===The Fall of the USSR===
After the fall of communism in Europe, the people regained power and the Assassins regained control and influence in the countries of the former USSR, mainly Russia. This allowed the Assassins to establish many ssfe houses in this now Assassin controlled country.

==History==
===Renaissance===
During the [[Italy|Italian]] [[Renaissance]], the [[Assassins]] organized a guild in India, with the intention of keeping an eye on the harbor and the international rulers that had taken interest in the country.<ref name="Project Legacy">[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]] - [[Contracts in Project Legacy]]</ref>

However, [[Manuel I of Portugal]] had also taken interest in India and he soon sent [[Pedro Álvares Cabral]]'s fleet to [[Calicut]], where the Assassins guild was based. It soon became clear that the Portuguese were not there for the spices, but to root out the Assassins, after which they started razing their shops and storehouses. In the chaos that ensued, they poisoned Cabral's most important men, causing them to die within minutes. Out of his thirteen ships, only four managed to escape back to Portugal. Through interrogation, the Assassins discovered that they had been right and that Manuel had even known the location of the Assassins Guild.<ref name="Project Legacy">[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]] - [[Contracts in Project Legacy]]</ref>

In response to the actions of the Assassins, Manuel sent [[Vasco da Gama]] to India, with a fleet of 800 men. The Assassins attempted a failed evacuation of the city, and upon Vasco da Gama's arrival he demanded the expulsion of all Muslims, knowing that would bring only violence.<ref name="Project Legacy">[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]] - [[Contracts in Project Legacy]]</ref>

The Assassins called upon the [[Civilians|citizens]] for resources and clothes and organized an assault on the Portuguese captains. Knowing that stealth would not help them this time, they charged at the [[guards]] and stabbed them multiple times, sending a clear message to Portugal.<ref name="Project Legacy">[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]] - [[Contracts in Project Legacy]]</ref>

===Modern times===
During the Indian independence movement in India, in which the Indians tried to free themselves from their British oppressors, [[Mahatma Gandhi]] became the political and spiritual leader of the country.<ref name="ac2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' [[Glyphs]]</ref>

The secret to his leadership was an [[Second Apple|Apple of Eden]], through which he was able to "lead" large numbers of men. On 30 January 1948, Gandhi was assassinated by [[Templars]] who were after his [[Pieces of Eden|Piece of Eden]].<ref name="ac2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' [[Glyphs]]</ref>
