Assassins vs Templars Conflict Depicted in Assassin\

Ubisoft transports players to feudal Japan's Sengoku era in Assassin's Creed Shadows, featuring historical figures like Fujibayashi Nagato, Akechi Mitsuhide, and Yasuke - the African warrior who served Oda Nobunaga. Following series tradition, these characters become entangled in a revenge narrative blending historical events with creative liberties.

The Fabricated Assassin-Templar Conflict

The core premise of Assassin's Creed - an eternal battle between Assassins and Templars - lacks historical foundation. While both the Order of Assassins (established 1090 AD) and Knights Templar (founded 1118) existed historically, their operations ceased by the early 14th century with no evidence of ideological opposition.

The Borgias' Exaggerated Villainy

Rodrigo Borgia as Pope Alexander VI

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood portrays Rodrigo Borgia (Pope Alexander VI) as a Templar Grand Master seeking supernatural control. While historically controversial, the Borgias weren't the cartoonish villains depicted in-game. Historical records suggest Cesare Borgia was more pragmatic leader than psychopath.

Machiavelli's Misrepresented Views

Niccolò Machiavelli Character Model

The games drastically reinterpret Niccolò Machiavelli's philosophies. Historically known for his approval of strong centralized power, Machiavelli actually supported Cesare Borgia's governance - contradicting his depicted role as Borgia antagonist in the games.

Da Vinci's Creative Timeline

Leonardo da Vinci\

While Leonardo da Vinci's ingenious designs inspired many in-game gadgets, his documented movements contradict the game's timeline. The Venetian flying machine sequence represents pure fabrication - despite being based on real conceptual drawings.

The Violent Boston Tea Party Revision

Connor at Boston Tea Party

The games transformed America's famously nonviolent protest into brutal combat scenario. Historical records confirm the 1773 event saw zero casualties - quite different from protagonist Connor's bloody confrontation depicted in Assassin's Creed 3.

Mohawk Loyalties Reversed

Connor as Mohawk Warrior

Connor's alliance with Patriot forces contradicts historical facts - most Mohawks actually supported British forces during the Revolutionary War, valuing their trade relationships and protection guarantees.

Templar-Made French Revolution

French Revolution Setting

Assassin's Creed Unity controversially reframes complex socioeconomic revolution as Templar conspiracy. Historical evidence shows the 1789 uprising resulted from decades of compounded issues, not secret society manipulation.

Louis XVI Execution Inaccuracies

Execution of Louis XVI

The game presents Louis' execution as controversial nail-biter decided by single vote. Historical records show clear majority support (394-321) reflecting widespread revolutionary sentiment.

Jack the Ripper Reimagined

Jack the Ripper Character

Syndicate transforms Victorian serial killer into rogue Assassin leader - perhaps the franchise's most creative historical reinterpretation. While maintaining Whitechapel setting, the game invents entirely fictional motivations.

Caesar's Rewritten Legacy

Death of Julius Caesar

Origins depicts Caesar as proto-Templar villain despite historical evidence showing his popularity and progressive land reforms. Ironically, his assassination led to the republic's collapse - opposite of assassins' goals.

Historical Accuracy Debate

The series blends meticulous historical research with bold creative reinterpretations - ultimately prioritizing compelling narratives over documentary accuracy. Which historical liberties most intrigue you? Share your perspectives below.
