Several vague terms Ubisoft uses in the encyclopedia, because they can't be clear about it:
{{Navbox
|navbar    = off
|title      = ''[[Assassin's Creed Wiki:WikiProject/Hungerer of Knowledge|<font color="white" style="font-size:13.5px; font-family:tahoma;">Major events</font>]]''
|style      = background: transparent;
|titlestyle = background: #000000;
|groupstyle = background: #A8A8A8;
|group1    = Prehistory
|list1    = [[Human-First Civilization War]] ∙ [[Toba catastrophe]]


|group2    = 12th century
|list2      = [[Siege of Masyaf]] ∙ [[Assault on Masyaf]] ∙ [[Return to Alep]] ∙ [[Quest for the Chalice]] ∙ [[Duel on Lord Basilisk's ship]] ∙ [[Fall and rise of Altaïr]] ∙ [[Search for the Apple]] ∙ [[Defense of Masyaf]] ∙ [[Hunt for the Nine]] ∙ [[Battle of Arsuf]] ∙ [[Retaking of Masyaf]] ∙ [[Assault on Acre's harbor]] ∙ [[Hunt on Cyprus]] ∙ [[Duel in the Templar Archive]] ∙ [[The Codex's journey]]


*"Another member of the Roman Brotherhood, the Assassin Leonius, killed Emperor Caligula in 41 CE."
|group3    = 13th century
**Roman "Brotherhood"?
|list3      = [[Assassination of Genghis Khan]] ∙ [[Decline of the Levantine Assassins]] ∙ [[Fall of Masyaf]]
*"...the Brotherhood, under the leadership of Al Mualim, had achieved prominence and notoriety across the Levant. Their main base of operations was in the walled city of Masyaf. The city thus became the cornerstone of the Assassin network;"
**This hints at the Assassin Order being ONLY located in the Levant, yet there are also [[Mongolian Assassins]], and it is said on several instances that the Order is a global organization. Additionally, it is said that before the 20th century, there was not just ONE leader of the Order.
*"By the 15th century, the center of Assassin activity had shifted from the Levant to Italy."
**This just completely ignores all the other Assassins outside of Italy during the Renaissance, particularly those in Spain and the Ottoman Empire. The Encyclopedia's Assassins article just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
*"The Templars, under the leadership of Rodrigo Borgia,"
**All Templars were under Rodrigo's control? Also those in China?
*"Al Mualim, leader of the Assassins,"
**Again, there was not just one leader before the 20th century, right?
*"At the same time [Altaïr] began to finalize the dismantling of the Brotherhood's headquarters within Masyaf, preferring to see many Assassins Guilds across the world rather than one central quarter of operations."
**There already were Assassins in other areas of the world during Altaïr's time, such as Mongolia, so this is completely redundant.
*"Altaïr also gave his Codex to the Polo brothers, trusting them to establish Assassin cells throughout the world."
**Cells? The term "cells" is also used to refer to the small Assassin teams during 2012, later on in the encyclopedia. A "cell" and a "guild" are NOT the same thing.
*"and learned from Santángel that the Spanish Assassins Guild had been arrested as part of the recent Spanish Inquisition,"
**This implies that one Assassins Guild spans an entire country, yet on other occasions, the term "branches" are used and in the Contracts from ''Brotherhood'' and the Mediterranean Defense from ''Revelations'' it is heavily implied that Guilds span a single city. Vague.
*"[Shaun Hastings,] being the tactical lifeline of at least one Assassin cell in Sao Paolo."
**The Assassin teams, consisting of approximately FOUR members, as of 2012, are "cells". So, the Polo brothers did NOT go to create any of these "cells", as I said before.
*"Aquilus, a distant ancestor of Desmond Miles, was a Gallo-Roman member of the Assassin Brotherhood from Lugdunum (modern-day Lyon, France) during the 3rd century CE."
**I do not kind of agree with the choice of the words "Assassin Brotherhood from Lugdunum", seeing as they also say "Assassin Brotherhood in the Levant" in the Encyclopedia, which isn't really of the same caliber in comparison. However, this hints at there being more Assassin in Lugdunum aside from Aquilus and Lucius, which is not implied in the French comic, and also a bit confusing, in my opinion.
*"Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (1165 - 1257) was a Syrian Assassin during the Third Crusade, becoming leader Master of the Brotherhood in 1191."
**I need not explain. Though I should add that in ''Revelations'', Al Mualim, Altaïr and Abbas are only referred to as "Mentor", not "Master". The term Mentor was used for any Assassin leader who had received an extraordinary amount of skill and knowledge. Therefore, they were simply "Assassin leaders" of a branch, and NOT the entire Order.
*"Al Mualim (unknown - 1191) was leader of the Assassin Brotherhood in the Levant during the Third Crusade, governing the Assassins from Masyaf, Syria."
**Finally something that DOES make sense. "Assassin Brotherhood '''in the Levant'''", emphasis on the last three words there.
*"Though on the surface a regular ''condottiero'', Mario was actually leader of the Assassins in Italy."
**Yes, "Assassins in Italy". No mention of guilds or cells, whatsoever; so nothing confusing here.
*"Upon his arrival, he quickly fell in with the Ottoman Assassins and their leader, Yusuf Tazim,"
**Look at the following:
*"Yusuf Tazim (c. 1465 - 1512), head of the Assassins in Constantinople, was an affable Turkish Assassin"
**The Ottoman Assassins were not only located in Constantinople, as the Mediterranean Defense from ''Revelations'' confirms that there were also Assassins in [[Bursa]]. Thus, this is contradicting.
*"Yusuf was a charismatic leader and kept the Ottoman Assassin's guild intact"
**Ugh...
*"Rodrigo Borgia (1431 - 1503) was a Spanish aristocrat who was both Grand Master of the Templar Order and an important figure in the Catholic Church,"
**Okay, fair enough. Rodrigo was the leader of the entire Templar Order, as this implies. But then there's this:
*"Operating on the fringe of society, the Order's leaders--eventually led by Rodrigo Borgia--forgot their true purpose, blinded by greed and personal ambition. Templars refer to this period as the Dark Age of the Order. Still, in other parts of the world the Templars remained strong; in Asia, for instance, they aided Emperor Jiajing secure his hold upon China."
**How can Rodrigo lead the Templars in China, when contact between Italy and China was non-existent during the Renaissance, and the Italian Templars and Chinese Templars both had different motives and ideals? Very contradicting.
*"Born in the late 19th century, Nikolai Orelov was a member of the Russian branch of the Assassin Brotherhood,"
**And now, the term branch is used. This one, to me, makes the most sense, since it's a proper term to span all Assassins in the whole country, and all of these Assassins share common objectives.


So, with all these confusing and contradicting points I mentioned, I'm just going to go for:
|group4    = 15th century
|list4      = [[Defense of Monteriggioni]] ∙ [[Assassination of Galeazzo Maria Sforza]] ∙ [[Giovanni's travels]] ∙ [[Auditore Execution]] ∙ [[Birth of an Assassin]] ∙ [[Pazzi Conspiracy]] ∙ [[Hunt in Venice]] ∙ [[Battle of Forlì]] ∙ [[Corombo in Venice]] ∙ [[Discovery in Spain]] ∙ [[Bonfire of the Vanities]] ∙ [[Confrontation in the Vatican]]


*There were "Assassin branches" up until the 20th century, when they were united under a single "Mentor", and they split up into "Assassin camps" (such as [[the Farm]] and the Philadelphia camp from ''The Fall''). Then, during the Great Purge, when most Assassin camps were exterminated by the Templars following the Mentor's assassination by Daniel Cross, the Assassins split up into small "Assassin cells", like the one Desmond is part of.
|group5    = 16th century
*There were "Templar branches" up unil the 20th century, when they were united under Abstergo Industries.
|list5    = [[Fall of Monteriggioni]] ∙ [[Rise of the Brotherhood]] ∙ [[Infiltration of the Castel Sant'Angelo]] ∙ [[Assassination of the Templar Agents]] ∙ [[Demolition of the Machines]] ∙ [[Incident at the Pagan Party]] ∙ [[Skirmish in the Campagna District]] ∙ [[Colosseum Passion Play]] ∙ [[Fall of Cesare Borgia]] ∙ [[Search for Cesare Borgia]] ∙ [[Attack on Valencia]] ∙ [[Search for Da Vinci]] ∙ [[Siege of Viana]] ∙ [[Battle of Agnadello]] ∙ [[Assassination of Niccolò di Pitigliano]] ∙ [[Pilgrimage to Masyaf]] ∙ [[Search for the Masyaf keys]] ∙ [[Attack on Suleiman I]] ∙ [[Skirmish in Constantinople's arsenal]] ∙ [[Infiltration of the Janissary camp]] ∙ [[Destruction of the Great Chain]] ∙ [[Fall of the Palaiologi]] ∙ [[Fight for the Masyaf Keys]] ∙ [[Revelation in Masyaf]] ∙ [[Journey to Mexico]] ∙ [[Search for the Book]]
