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.

===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>

'''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.

'''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.

===Part IV: 1774, Sixteen Years Later===
====12 January 1774====
Haytham recounted Holden's burial, Jenny's return to London and his return to America, where he bought a plantation in [[Virginia]]. As the [[American Revolution]] culminated into the [[Boston Tea Party]], Haytham met with his Templar brothers in Boston to discuss how they could take advantage of the conflict.
There, Lee claimed Kaniehtí:io had died during an attack on her village ordered by George Washington in 1760, and the topic turned to a boy, roughly five-years old, whom they had encountered on their way to the village before the attack. They then explained he had encountered a native boy in [[Martha's Vineyard]] in 1770, wearing Ziio's necklace, and again at the Tea Party, now wearing the robes of an Assassin.
====27 June 1776====
Haytham recounted the Assassin killing Johnson and Pitcairn as the war broke out, while he plotted to kill George Washington and replace him with Lee. The Assassin targeted Hickey's counterfeiting operation in [[New York City|New York]], causing both of them to be arrested and thrown into [[Bridewell Prison]]. Haytham visited Hickey, and after glimpsing the Assassin in his cell, confirmed that he was his son. Despite this, Haytham permitted Lee to go ahead with having the Assassin framed for plotting to kill Washington and to be executed, giving Hickey the opportunity to assassinate the Commander-in-Chief.
====28 June 1776====
Regretting his decision to have his son killed, Haytham came disguised to Connor's execution at [[City Hall]]. He saw the [[Mentor]] [[Achilles Davenport]] in attendance, and that one of the other [[Colonial Assassins]] was aiming a [[bow]] at the hangman's rope. The arrow loosed was unable to break the rope as Connor fell through the trapdoor, forcing Haytham to throw a [[Throwing knives|knife]] at it, releasing him. Afterwards, Haytham kept quiet about betraying the Templars as Lee explained that Connor had promptly killed Hickey and foiled the assassination plot.
====7 January 1778====
Church had betrayed the [[Continental Army]], and stole supplies from [[Valley Forge]], so Haytham judged him a traitor to the Templars too for placing personal gain over the Revolution. While tracking Church to an abandoned church (something not lost on Haytham), he encountered Connor, who was also searching for the supplies. After agreeing to an alliance, they encountered Church's mercenaries and learned of his location in New York.
====26 January 1778====
As they travelled to the abandoned [[Smith and Company Brewery]] in New York, Haytham asked Connor how his mother was, feigning ignorance of her death to convince him the Templars were not responsible. Inside, they confronted a decoy, who revealed Church had fled with the supplies to [[Martinique]]. Haytham and Connor escaped when Church's mercenaries set fire to the building.
====7 March 1778====
After a month pursuing Church on Connor's ship the ''[[Aquila]]'', "trapped" with [[Robert Faulkner]], Haytham grabbed the wheel and collided the ship with Church's schooner. Jumping aboard, Haytham confronted Church below deck, dodging a shot from his pistol and proceeding to beat him profusely. Connor arrived and learned of the supplies' location from Church before ending his life.
====16 June 1778====
In New York, Haytham spoke to an informant nicknamed Twitch, who explained the soldiers of the [[British Army]] were not informed of any plans anymore, only to await orders from [[Jägers|Jaegers]] commanded by the officers. Haytham and Connor killed a group of Redcoats to draw the Jaegers, and took out one of them, retrieving a letter indicating a meeting at the ruins of [[Trinity Church]].
After capturing the officers there, Haytham interrogated them at his hideout in [[Fort George]], and learned the British planned to march from [[Philadelphia]] and regroup in New York within two days. Haytham then killed the officers, which Connor objected to.
Although Haytham regretted how corrupt he had become, he countered that the officers would have warned the [[Loyalists]], and argued the British treated their prisoners no better on prison ships like the [[HMS Jersey|HMS ''Jersey'']]. He placed further doubt in Connor by explaining the [[Patriots]] aboard suffered because Washington refused to exchange his prisoners for them.
====17 June 1778====
The Templar and Assassin came to Valley Forge, where conditions had greatly improved due to their efforts. Connor informed Washington of what they learned, while Haytham found a letter on the commander's desk ordering an attack on Connor's village, as they had sided with the British. Reading it out and denouncing Washington, Haytham believed he had turned his son against him, only for Connor to denounce him in turn, believing he had known all along and only informed him when it was opportune. As he set off to stop the destruction of his village, Connor warned Haytham or Washington he would kill them should they choose to follow or oppose him.
====16 September 1781====
While waiting for Connor to launch an [[attack on Fort George]], Haytham wrote about why Lee had been dismissed after the [[Battle of Monmouth]], and his decision to spare Washington after their encounter at Valley Forge. Although Lee blamed Haytham for creating the Assassin, Haytham had no intention of letting Connor kill them, and opted to stay at the fort to stop him. Lee apologized for doubting him, and left.
Haytham wrote his final entry, recognizing he ought to present the truth to Connor, just as his own father was the one man in his life to never lie to him, hoping in time, he would understand and forgive him.
===Epilogue===
====16 September 1781====
Connor described his battle with Haytham during the [[attack on Fort George]], which ended with him killing his father.
====2 October 1782====
Connor caught up with Lee at a tavern and killed him.
====15 November 1783====
Connor discovered his village was deserted. He resolved to bury his father's amulet. As he did this, he spoke to the spirits of his parents, apologizing for failing his people to his mother, while agreeing to compromise with his father's beliefs by hoping people would become better as he strived for the future.

“He has such a mixed heritage and upbringing and exposure to so many different ideas, so he’s quite unique in the world,” May said. “It makes him more thoughtful. He’s more considerate of different perspectives. He spends a lot more time observing and thinking than he does making snap judgments and proclamations.”
'''Smuggling''' is the illegal transportation of goods.
 
Unlike previous Assassin Altaïr, who was motivated by his desire to restore his honor, and Ezio, who was motivated by revenge, Connor is motivated by a desire to “just do good in the world,” May said.
 
“He sees a lot of wrong in the world … and he finds that there’s no one else out there willing to do anything about it,” May said. “It definitely makes him a bit of an idealist and in some sense, it makes him a little bit naive, that he thinks that one person can make a difference, but he clings to that belief and remains very firm in his convictions, so I think it makes him endearing in a way that previous assassins haven’t been.”<ref>[http://herocomplex.latimes.com/games/assassins-creed-3-writer-corey-may/ ''Los Angeles Times'': ‘Assassin’s Creed 3′ writer Corey May adds revolutionary details]</ref>

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>
 
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>

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]
