The '''English Civil War''' was a series of conflicts fought between supporters of King Charles I and Parliament, who disputed the degree of control the other group ought to have over the country.


After two periods of conflict, Charles I was executed in 1649, and England became a republic ruled by Parliament. His son Charles II returned from exile in the [[Netherlands]] and gathered an army from Scotland, Wales and Gloucestershire. He lost the war at the Battle of Worcester, where Oliver Cromwell's larger force routed the Royalists. Charles escaped via St. Martin's Gate after the {{Wiki|Thomas Wentworth, 1st Earl of Cleveland|Earl of Cleveland}} led a diversionary cavalry charge.

I do not feel the following are necessary now, but will do when we inevitably get a game in London and Paris.
===Palace of Westminster===
{{Era|BH|PL}}
{{WP-REAL}}
The '''Palace of Westminster''' is the meeting place of the [[United Kingdom|British Parliament]] in [[London]].
During the [[Renaissance]], it housed a secret court known as the {{Wiki|Star Chamber}}, named for the stars painted on the ceiling of the meeting room. There, members could try powerful members of society whom ordinary courts were incapable of convicting. [[Henry VII of England|King Henry VII]] offered the [[Italian Assassins]] a seat in the Chamber after they killed his enemy [[Margaret of York]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'' - [[Contracts (Assassin's Creed III)|Contracts]]</ref>
*[[Shaun Hastings]] used the pseudonym "{{Wiki|Guy Fawkes}}" for his online activities: Fawkes, of course, plotted to assassinate {{Wiki|James VI and I|King James I}} by blowing up the Palace during the {{Wiki|Gunpowder Plot}} in 1605.<ref>''[[James Morse's email]]</ref>
{{reflist}}
===Westminster Abbey===
{{Era|PL}}
{{WP-REAL}}
[[File:King's Return.png|thumb|250px|Charles II's coronation at Westminster Abbey]]
'''Westminster Abbey''' is a large church located west of the [[Palace of Westminster]] in [[London]]. It is the site for coronations of the [[United Kingdom|English]] [[monarchy]], as well as burials and Royal weddings.
In 1661, during the coronation of [[Charles II|King Charles II]], he noticed his general [[George Monck]] speaking with a man holding an [[Apples of Eden|Apple of Eden]], but had to bow his head to receive his crown from the Archbishop {{Wiki|William Juxon}} before he could look further.
*''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'' - [[Holidays: Chapter 1 - Ghosts of Christmas Past]]
===The Louvre===
{{Era|PL}}
{{WP-REAL}}
'''The Louvre''', located in [[Paris]], [[France]], is one of the largest museums in the world. During the [[Renaissance]], it was a royal palace.
In 1527, the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Giovanni Borgia]] received permission to consult the Louvre's library with [[Maria Amiel]]. They discovered [[Nicolas Flamel]]'s will leaving his [[Book of Abraham|grimoire]] to his nephew, and used the records to locate his closest living relative.

==Kenways==
{{Era|AC3L|AC4}}
At some point we might have to link the Kenway family instead of listing Edward, Haytham and Connor in articles to do with blending and eavesdropping when discussing the AnvilNext games. Thoughts anyone?
{{Quote|Hey, did you ever think about that word? "Smuggler?" Rather funny, isn't it?|A smuggler working for [[Upton Travers]], 1715.|Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag}}
 
'''Smuggling''' is the illegal transportation of goods.
The '''Kenway family''' were a [[United Kingdom|British]] family during the 18th century, whose members individually swore allegiance to the [[Assassins]] and [[Templars]].
 
===History===
The earliest known member of the Kenway family was the [[Piracy|pirate]] [[Edward Kenway]], born to an English father and Welsh mother. He married [[Caroline Scott]] and had a daughter named [[Jenny Kenway|Jenny]]. After joining the Assassins and ending his life in the [[Caribbean]], Edward remarried to [[Tessa Kenway|Tessa Stephenson-Oakley]], and they had a son named [[Haytham Kenway|Haytham]] in [[London]].
 
In 1735, Edward was murdered by men secretly working for [[Reginald Birch]], who also kidnapped Jenny and sold her into [[slavery]]. Birch took in Haytham under his wing and trained him to become a Templar. In 1757, Haytham rescued Jenny from [[Damascus]] and learned the truth, and they killed Birch. Despite this, Haytham remained loyal to the Order.
 
Two years beforehand, while searching for the [[Grand Temple]] in [[North America]], Haytham conceived a child with the [[Kanien'kehá:ka]] woman [[Kaniehtí:io]]. Their son [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] became the [[Colonial Assassins|Colonial Assassin]] Connor, who eventually killed his father when it became clear their ideologies were irreconcilable.
 
Connor eventually had children, whose bloodline continued to [[Desmond Miles]].
 
And that's it for now, until we learn about Connor's kids or if Haytham had a French child or something. :S
 
===Tactics===
Edward, Haytham and Connor were masters of [[Fists|hand-to-hand combat]] and [[dual-wielding]], and trained in [[freerunning]] and [[swimming]]. They were also adept at being inconspicuous while [[blending]] and [[eavesdropping]], making more of an effort to socialize while doing the former. They all possessed [[Eagle Vision]].
 
As he was trained by Templars rather than Assassins, Haytham lacked skills his father and his son shared, like the ability to balance on tree branches or [[hunting]] and fighting wild animals. He also never commanded his own ship.
 
==British Assassins==
{{Era|ACB|AC3}}
The [[United Kingdom|British Brotherhood]] originated from the members of the [[Italian Assassins]] who came to [[London]] in 1503 to kill [[Margaret of York]]. They gained the trust of [[Henry VII of England|King Henry VII]] and earned a seat in the {{Wiki|Star Chamber}}.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'' - [[Contracts (Project Legacy)|Contracts]]</ref>
 
In 1588, the Assassins killed the anti-Protestant [[Mary I of England|Queen Mary]], who was succeeded by [[Elizabeth I of England|Queen Elizabeth]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' - [[Glyphs]]</ref>
 
During the reign of [[Oliver Cromwell]], the Assassins collaborated with General [[George Monck]] to undermine Cromwell's regime, in exchange for the Crown's [[Apple of Eden 2|Apple of Eden]]. They wrote to [[Charles II of England|King Charles]], who was in exile in the [[Netherlands|Dutch Republic]] to keep him informed.<ref>''Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy'' - [[Holidays: Chapter 1 - Ghosts of Christmas Past]]</ref>
 
In 1754, the Assassin [[Miko]], who possessed a [[Grand Temple Key|key]] for the [[Grand Temple]], was murdered in the [[Theatre Royal]] by the Templar [[Haytham Kenway]]. Kenway promptly left for [[Boston]] on the ''[[Providence]]'', but was followed by [[Louis Mills]], who left a trail for the [[Colonial Assassins]] on the ''[[Aquila]]''. However, Kenway discovered Mills' allegiance and killed him, before sailing the ''Providence'' into a storm to shake off the ''Aquila''.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>
 
And that's it until AC4, or if Ubisoft makes a Robin Hood game. :D

Other things to do[edit | edit source]


"Hey, did you ever think about that word? "Smuggler?" Rather funny, isn't it?"
―A smuggler working for Upton Travers, 1715.[src]

Smuggling is the illegal transportation of goods.

Far East[edit | edit source]

For the inevitable Shao Jun or Japanese ACs.


The Far East referred to the countries located in east Asia.

The Chinese and Mongolian branches of the Assassins were active in the region, removing tyrants like Qin Shi Huang and Genghis Khan. Despite Genghis' assassination at the hands of Qulan Gal, and the aid of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, the Mentor of the Levantine Assassins, they were unable to stop the spread of the Mongol Empire and the conquering of China.

The Italian Assassins, including Marco Polo, travelled through the Far East and to the court of Kublai Khan, where they recovered Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's Codex.

By 1524, the Chinese Assassins had been wiped out by the Emperor Jiajing. After seeking the aid of Ezio Auditore da Firenze, the former Mentor of the Italian Assassins, Shao Jun journey back to her country to rebuild the Order. By the 21st century, the Assassins had a cell located in Osaka, Japan.

Religion[edit | edit source]

Religion is something the leaders of the Templars and Assassins do not practice due to their knowledge of the First Civilization. The former often moved into religious positions of power to control people, while the latter protected the rights of people to believe what they wanted.

The Aztecs' worship of Tezcatlipoca involved human sacrifices, greatly disgusting the troops under Hernán Cortés.

The Hermeticists believed man, the gods and the world were all equal, and were driven underground as their beliefs undermined the Church.

The Freemasons were a Brotherhood founded after the Renaissance which allowed any man, regardless of what god he believed in, to join.

During the French Revolution, the revolutionary government tried to replace Christianity with the worship of the Supreme Being, an anthromorphisation of reason. [1]
