The Great Pyramids of Giza in Egypt

Africa is the world's second-largest continent, located to the south of Europe and the southwest of the Middle East and Asia.

Africa was home to Ancient Egypt, one of the earliest human civilizations, and was the birthplace of both the Hidden Ones and the Order of the Ancients, the precursors to the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order, respectively.[1] Following the Roman conquest of Egypt in the 1st century BCE and the rise of the Roman Empire as a global power, both organizations spread their reach to the other continents, but continued to maintain a presence in Africa.[2]

During the Age of Discovery, numerous Africans were captured and sold to Europeans to be deported to the Americas. There, they were sold to European colonists to work on plantations or as personal slaves in numerous colonies throughout the American continents and the Caribbean.[3][4][5]

In September or October 2006, a virus dubbed L-11 broke out in Africa. After three months, 96% of the continent's population had died, and even after six years, Africa remained essentially empty.[6] This story was later alleged by Abstergo Industries to be a falsified account reported by Erudito, a hacking collective.[7]
