Heroes of History: The Peacekeepers

[EDITORIAL NOTE: I made a mistake in the video and said the Seljuk Turks were Shia, when they were actually Sunni. I apologize for the error.]

Heroes in History returns with Peacekeeper. A lot of people asked me to talk about her, and I think a large part of that is because no one is quite sure who she's based on. There were no female knight orders in the Medieval age. There were no battle nuns or Sisters of Battle. They didn't even really have an order of assassins. Assassinations DID occur, but none were built around nightly orders. So who were they?

After carefully considering the evidence, and knowing the source material, I conclude that the Peacekeepers are likely based on (emphasis on BASED) the Hashashins of Persia...the same order that the Assassins of Assassins Creed are based on. It's a loose connection, but I hope you'll see why I say what I do. I hope you enjoy the video!
