- "Order, Mr. Miles. The world needs order. That is what we are working towards, and that is what you are helping us to achieve."
- ―Warren Vidic to Desmond Miles concerning the New World Order.[src]
Establishing a New World Order was the ultimate goal of Abstergo Industries, which was the modern front for the Templar Order. Its goal was to control both the minds and will of the human race.
Ideology
Governed by the Templars' belief that humankind needs order, discipline, and control in order to mask its barbaric nature, the Templar Order planned to create a new world in which the Templars possessed absolute control.
In order to set their plan into motion, Abstergo kidnapped two males in 2012, Clay Kaczmarek and Desmond Miles. These two men, dubbed Animus Subjects, were used in order to investigate their genetic memories to locate several Pieces of Eden, which were integral to the Templar goal.
The Templars' rule would be one of so-called "benign tyranny," as although the Templars would eliminate racism and the petty machinations of the warlords and princes of the time, they would simply replace that disordered chaos with their own arbitrary orders.
History
High Middle Ages
This idea dates back since the Second Crusade at the latest, as even the first waves of Templars in the siege of Acre during the Third Crusade were already fully aware of the plan.
As their very cause was to collect the fantastic sources of knowledge locked in the Pieces of Eden, the Templar Order was equipped with some of the most advanced technology of the periods during which it was active. The machinations of Robert de Sable and Garnier de Naplouse during the Third Crusade included the making of drugs and medicines which the world had never before witnessed.
Renaissance
Though the Templar Order in Italy wasn't seeking a New World Order, Cesare Borgia sought to unify Italy under a Borgia banner, from his time as Captain General of the Papal Army in Rome.
In 1511, Prince Ahmet, son of then Sultan Bayezid II, attempted to unite Constantinople, and destroy its culture, having it think with one mind. Ahmet believed the Masyaf Keys that unlocked Altaïr's library could lead him to the information which would be housed in the Grand Temple
Modern Times
- "The human race calls out for direction. They want to know why they're here, what they're meant to do, well...we're going to tell them."
- ―Vidic on Abstergo's goal with a New World Order.[src]
The proclaimed New World of the Templars seemed to be based on the utopic ideal, a world completely free of bigotry. However, the Templar ideal appeared to differ in the establishment of a small ruling elite controlling all education, military force, and food distribution.
The Templars' plan for a New World Order was to use the Pieces of Eden to control every human being on the planet. They planned to launch a Piece of Eden on 21 December 2012 into space, in connection with one of their satellites. Through the combined power, the Templars hoped to activate it to control the minds of every human being on the planet. The Templars believed that by completely controlling others, they would bring peace to the world.
Trivia
- December 21, 2012 was the date the Mayan Calendar Cycle ended, it is a common belief that the Mayans thought the world would end on this date.
- Near the end of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, continual references are made to the number 72 – including the fact that there were 72 days left before the Abstergo satellite launch. Other references included Exodus 14:19-21 (the 72 names of God) and the number 72 being the password to enter the Colosseum Vault. Also, construction on the Colosseum began in 72 CE. Furthermore, Rodrigo Borgia died when he was 72.
