'''Modern times''' refers to the period from the start of the 20th century through the 21st century {{Wiki|Common Era|CE}}. This era saw the overall decline of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]] and the ascendance of the [[Templars|Templar Order]], including [[Desmond Miles]]' capture for use in the [[Animus Project]] and the commercialization of [[genetic memory]] technologies.<br />
<br />
The Templar Order recovered several [[Pieces of Eden]] during the modern age. Among the victims of the search were [[Harry Houdini]], [[Mahatma Gandhi]] and [[John F. Kennedy]].<ref name="AC2Glyph9">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' - [[Glyphs|Glyph]] #9</ref> [[Nikola Tesla]] also lost his [[Apple of Eden 4|Apple of Eden]] to the Templars,<ref name="AC2Glyph1">''Assassin's Creed II'' - Glyph #11</ref> an incident which motivated him to help the Assassins in destroying the Imperial Sceptre, one of the [[Staves of Eden#Imperial Sceptre|Staves of Eden]].<ref name="AC2Glyph16">''Assassin's Creed II'' - Glyph #16</ref> Additionally, the [[Apollo 11 Moon landing|Apollo 11]] mission to the [[Moon]] was in fact a Templar expedition to recover an [[Apple of Eden 5|Apple of Eden]] that was on the lunar surface.<ref name="AC2Glyph10">''Assassin's Creed II'' - Glyph #10</ref><br />
