    In the ACII and AC:B Glyph/Rift puzzles, there was some reference to Queen Elizabeth carrying an Apple of Eden. I guess they can start from there. It would be very interesting to me, at least.

    I would take this with a grain of salt, more than likely it will be proven false.

    The British Empire between the 18th and 19th Century seem to be Templars, since that was the time they started colonizing the world, ostensibly to spread the ideas of good governance, free trade and uplift the lives of their colonies but mostly to drain their resources dry. Which seems like a good Templar motivation as any. Trying to bring order and all that. As such the 19th Century would I think feature the English usually as bad guys.

    As for English Assassins during the time you have the Chartist Movement, the first English socialists and Karl Marx in London. You also have a lot of interesting stuff happening in Ireland. But I can't think of notable high profile assassinations and Jack the Ripper is most definitely not an Assassin.

    I personally think the Elizabethan Era is a more suitable a time for Assassins. It was the golden age, defending England from the Spanish. You have Walter Raleigh, Francis Bacon, John Dee and then there's Christopher Marlowe who got assassinated by government agents, and his personality and legend would make him an awesome English Assassin. We can also meet Shakespeare. Before the Tudors you had the old feudal England which kind of died with Richard III, so the Renaissance coming to London would make it an awesome setting.
