The Templar Order, also known as the Order of the Knights Templar or the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and the Temple of Solomon is a secret transnational organization which for thousands of years has striven to seize control of humanity in the name of uplifting their condition and inaugurating lasting, world peace. Their vision of a perfect, global society, which they term the New World Order, is one which entails a world government under their dominion, whether directly imposed or in the form of a shadow regime manipulating states and society from behind-the-scenes during the war with the Assassins Brotherhood that had been precipitated a millennia-long shadow war that has persisted today, with Abstergo became a multinational corporate conglomerate, and the primary front for the modern day activities of the Templar Order with a total destruction of the Assassins across global societies.
