Southeast Asia is a geographical south-eastern region of Asia that is located south of the mainland China, east of the Indian subcontinent, and north-west of Australia.
History
In the early 18th century, Southeast Asia became the "latest stage for the great game" among world powers, including the Qing, Dutch, British, Portuguese, French and Spanish Empires, all of which competed to hold as much territory and influence in the region and established numerous colonies there.[1]
In 1725, the British Assassin Edward Kenway travelled to Southeast Asia after being informed of potential Isu vaults in the region that could contain Pieces of Eden. Initially conducting much of his investigation within the Portuguese colony of Macau, Edward later established his own organization, the Zhang Wei Union, alongside the allies he had made in the city.[2] These allies accompanied Edward when he left Macau to continue his investigation in the Philippines, where the Union clashed with other factions seeking the Pieces of Eden for themselves.[3]
By the 21st century, the Union had been reformed as the Zhawang Corporation, but continued to operate throughout Southeast Asia, occasionally working alongside the Assassin Brotherhood. In 2023, they attempted to rescue Noa Kim, a Korean-American descendant of Edward who had been abducted by Abstergo Industries[4] in order to use his genetic memories to find a crescent amulet, one of the Pieces of Eden encountered by Edward.[5]
After several failed attempts to retrieve Noa in both Macau[2] and Cebu,[6] and following Abstergo's retrieval of the amulet from the Strait of Malacca,[7] the Assassin Nathan Zhang made a deal with Dr. Shimazu Sei, who sought to save Noa after Abstergo ordered his termination.[8] Nathan helped Sei, her bodyguard Yuki, and Noa escape from Abstergo with the amulet and brought them to a safehouse in Singapore. There, while Noa recovered from the amulet's effects, Sei used the Animus to relive the memories of her ancestor Shimazu Saito in the hopes they would lead her to another Piece of Eden that could speed up Noa's recovery.[9]
