Communism

Communism is a revolutionary socialist movement to create a classless, moneyless, and stateless social order structured upon common ownership of the means of production, as well as a social, political and economic ideology that aims at the establishment of this social order.

Communism became the favored form of government during the Russian Revolution during the early 20th century in Russia, when the Bolsheviks rose up against the authoritarian tsardom. The Assassins, who formerly operated as the Narodnaya Volya against the tsardom, supported the Bolsheviks and their leader Vladimir Lenin (whose brother was an Assassin himself) to replace the royal house with a populist government.

Lenin's successor, Joseph Stalin, later became a manipulated puppet for the Templars, helping in setting up World War II. While the Templar leadership of Abstergo Industries took up an anti-communistic stance towards their employees, they nonetheless used communism just like capitalism as a means to achieve their desired New World Order.
