The original Illuminati were established in Bavaria in the 18th century. It was a small and secretive group that opposed the Church’s influence over science and politics, and they set about trying to limit the influence of the church. The group was eventually stamped out by Bavarian authorities, but many people believe the group still exists today.

Today’s Illuminati is allegedly far larger and far more powerful than when they began. Conspiracy theories claim that their membership consists of the world’s elite and that they use their power to influence global politics to their liking. Here’s a look at some of the supposed facts associated with the group and some of the individuals that are allegedly linked.

1. The New World Order

The New World Order is a supposed occurrence that will see a significant change in the way the world’s hierarchy is restructured. The general idea is that the entire planet will come under the rule of a single totalitarian government mostly consisting of today’s ruling elite from around the world, including the Illuminati. The New World Order is often envisaged to be a post-apocalyptic type scenario when the masses are under the complete control of oppressive ruling factions. Some New World Order theories also have roots in religious belief systems, such as the rapture which will allegedly see good Christians taken to heaven, leaving everybody else behind to fend for themselves against evil forces.
