===Medieval history===
==Project Legacy==
During the Middle Ages, the [[Crusaders]] and [[Saracens]] waged war to control [[Jerusalem]]. Despite being under Saracen control, the Knights Templar still had a presence in Solomon's Temple, guarding the prize that made their fortune and power. [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]], [[Malik Al-Sayf]] and his brother [[Kadar Al-Sayf|Kadar]] were sent to steal the Apple: despite Altaïr's arrogance bungling the operation and Kadar's death, Malik managed to recover the Apple. To redeem himself, Altaïr was sent to assassinate the nine leaders of the Templar Order by himself: he hunted for [[Talal]] and [[Majd Addin]] in Jerusalem, and [[Garnier de Naplouse]], [[William of Montferrat]] and [[Sibrand]] in the Crusader-held city of [[Acre]]. Finally, he was sent to kill [[Robert de Sable]] in Jerusalem, but the Templars were prepared for him and used [[Maria Thorpe]] as a decoy.<ref name="AC1"/>

"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]
