"I had to let PE4 go. As per instructions, I've shipped it to Europe. H. has it, so I assume the war will begin as soon as he can take over. We'll let him have his fun... and then end it with a bang, as planned."
―Henry Ford, in a letter to Thomas Edison.[src]-[m]

Adolf Hitler (1889 – 1945) was a Templar puppet who became the leader of the National Socialist German Workers' Party, also known as the Nazi Party, and served as Chancellor of Germany from 1933 until his death in 1945.[1]

Biography

In 1933, Hitler was under the influence of the Templars and obtained an Apple of Eden from the Templar industrialist Henry Ford to utilize as a catalyst for initiating World War II.[2] Alongside fellow Templar puppets Franklin D. Roosevelt and Joseph Stalin, Hitler brought on the turmoil and fear necessary for Abstergo Industries to push forward its industrial development and take control of the working population through capitalism.[3]

However, by 1943, the Templars' influence over Hitler and the other world leaders began to dwindle, and the Order found it hard to ensure their control over Nazi Germany. As such, the Templars began colluding with the extremist American Assassin Boris Pash to create a machine called Die Glocke, which would be capable of creating a wormhole to traverse time and allow the Templars and Assassins to killing Hitler before his rise to power.[4]

By 1943, Hitler's Apple had been given to Obergruppenführer Gero Kramer to use in a variety of experiments. After the inventor Nikola Tesla sabotaged Kramer's time travel experiments at the Norse power plant of Vemork, Pash used his research alongside the American Templar John von Neumann on 28 October 1943 to conduct a similar experiment code-named Project Rainbow in Philadelphia, United States. However, the British Assassin Eddie Gorm sabotaged Pash's plans by killing Tesla, whereupon Neumann was directed to the Manhattan Project to help the Americans build nuclear weapons and turn the tide of the war against the Nazis.[4]

By the end of the war, with the Nazis on the verge of defeat, the Templars were able to exert their influence over Hitler once more. On 30 April 1945, Hitler executed his body double inside the Führerbunker and planned to meet the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill at a rendezvous point to transfer over his Piece of Eden, but upon leaving the bunker, an Assassin killed him.[5]
