History
Spying on the Kremlin
During the 15th century, the Italian Assassins sent several Assassins, including Pietro Antonio Solari and Ridolfo "Aristotele" Fioravant, to Moscow, where they were recruited by Tsar Ivan III Vasilevich as architects to work on the Kremlin. Unbeknownst to Ivan, they secretly kept an eye on his activities and ambitions, reporting back to the Assassins in Italy.[1]
However, in 1493, Ivan found out that Solari and Aristotele were spies, and had Solari killed. Aristotele, realizing Ivan was close to uncovering who they worked for, turned himself into the culprit for the murder. Additionally, he began creating rumors about a revival of the Strigolniki Sect.[1]
In the early 1500s, Ezio Auditore da Firenze sent a group of Assassin apprentices to Moscow to find out what happened to Solari. The Assassins infiltrated the Kremlin, knocking a group of guards unconscious and eventually finding documents pointing out that Aristotele murdered Solari. After a search for Aristotele's location, offering small amounts of coins for rumors, they were directed to a church where Aristotele was rumored to hide. Having threatened the priests to lure Aristotele out, he came out to protect his people and explained his actions to the apprentices. The apprentices carried out the plans Aristotele had made to fool Ivan into believing the Assassins were working for the Strigolniki Sect, until they found two of Ivan's top investigators. Killing the two men, they carved the bodies with the symbol of the Strigolniki Sect and left them hanging from church beams, with Aristotele leaving a note declaring himself the leader of the sect. The apprentices and Aristotele returned to Rome to question Aristotele, and new Assassin spies were sent to Moscow.[1]
Assassination of Tsarevich Ivan
In 1581, the Assassins killed Tsarevich Ivan Ivanovich, the second son and apparent heir to Ivan the Terrible.[2] However, his death was commonly believed to have been caused by his own father.

Under Stalin's rule
After Lenin died in 1924, he was eventually succeeded by Joseph Stalin, who was secretly a Templar. Under his rule, the Soviet Union became a corrupt and decrepit state,[2] putting the capitalistic economy - created by the Templars - in a more positive light.[3]
However, on 5 March 1953, Stalin was eventually killed by the Assassins.[2]
Dissolution of the Soviet Union
During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the head of state of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev wanted to reform the country, by his "perestroika". The Templars realized that Gorbachev did not share their interests, so they had the United Kingdom's Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher contact Boris Yeltsin, after which Yeltsin started to stand up to communism and gain popularity. In December 1991 the Templars called a secret meeting in Belavezhskaya Forest, and later that month Gorbachev was unseated and Yeltsin became the head of the newly-formed Russian Federation.[3]
