Egoist Union

The Egoist Union is the name given to an organized network of people that has existed since the Industrial Revolution. It is considered by many to be a terrorist organization, a death cult, and a secret society put into one single organization. Other people have compared it to the Assassin Order from the Assassin's Creed video games.
==History==
Wikipedia article: Industrial Revolution
The Egoist Union was formed during the Industrial Revolution . In addition to the rise of new inventions that shaped the world as we know it today, the Industrial Revolution also became the background for the formation of many new ideologies. One of them was Egoism, forwarded by German philosopher Max Stirner. 
In the alternate universe depicted in the TACITUS series, Egoism replaced Marxism as the most influential and dominant worldview of Europe. The main cause of this was simply because Stirner had more influence over everybody than Marx (although Marx had quite a number of followers himself).
Throughout history's biggest moments, the Order of the Phoenix has either directly caused, or influenced various major events, including (but not limited to) the American Revolution, World War I, World War II, the Cold War, Vietnam War, Korean War, the Russo-Afghan War, and the War on New Dawn.
==Ideology and morality==
The Order of the Phoenix was founded on the ideology known as Egoism, the idea that human morals are guided by self-interest. Henceforth, members of the Order pride themselves in advancing their own self-interests, regardless of whether their deeds are considered by others to be morally good or evil. They always question whether a certain action will benefit individual people in the long run. This primarily explains why they are so skeptical of religion-they see religion as somewhat of a stumbling block in achieving one's own interests, but members are shown to embrace or practice a certain religion if they see it as a means of personal gain. Thus, members of the Order are considered "Crypto-Religious" (ex: Crypto-Christians , Crypto-Muslims , Crypto-Pagans, etc.).
