The Philosophers

The Philosophers is a secret pact made up of the great powers from the United States, China and Russia during the Second World War. They put together all the money they had so that after the war the countries could share the money. Somewhere toward the end of the war, Colonel Volgin's father took the money and placed it into banks in Australia and Switzerland, before passing it onto Volgin. Eventually the Philiosopher disbanded, leaving the Philosopher's Legacy in Volgin's hands, which America and China would both fight for, in an attempt to bring it back to their country. The Legacy found it's way back to America via. Revolver Ocelot, who would use the money to revive the American division of the Philosophers into The Patriots
