Immortal Union

The **Immortal Union (IU)**, or Immortalis Unionem, is the international, previously top secret, body encompassing all immortal beingsof the world. Founded in its original form in 212 BC by Marcus Julius Cornelius Caesar, Julius Marcus Caesar and 12 other Immortals known at the time. The IU is led by Commander Marcus Ceasar and the Immortal Council, which contains the senior military officers and chiefs of department aswell as others.

The original name for the IU was *"Immortalis C*oncilium*"*(212 BC- 51 BC), later changed to *"Immortalis Legio"*(51 BC- 1066 AD), *"Immortalis Exercitus"*(1066 AD- 1591 AD) and *"Immortalis Foederatio"*(1591 AD- 1768 AD). Up until *September 23 2012* the IU was a secret group, known only to governments and selected people. They revealed themselves to the general public after the death of President Barack Obama on the 9th of that month, as per US-IU Agreement LVII of 1963*.*

Since its founding the IU has worked towards finding all immortals in the world, wether they are human or not. As of July 1 2014 there were 289,435 immortals humans and an estimated 31,900 immortal animals, from horses to mouse to bees to fish. The IU prides itself on being progressive and being very far advanced. They also pride themselves on their military might, having the world's only airborne aircraft carriers, the world's first railguns and an elite military force.

In World War 3 the *I*U took the side of the Coalition as they disagreed with the Alliance's ideal of global domination. They fought heavily across all fronts, suffering the loss of 2 airborne carriers and seeing many immortals get injuries that knocked them outfor months, sometimes years, at a time.The IU was handed control of the San Fransisco area, as per agreement with the United States of America in the so called Immortal-US WW3 Agreement of 1946 which stated that in the case of a new world war the IU would gain control over the San Fransisco area if they had been revealed by then.
