NWO and Illuminati - Fact or Fiction

The common theme in conspiracy theories about a New World Order is that a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world through an authoritarian world government—which replaces sovereign nation-states—and an all-encompassing propaganda that ideologizes its establishment as the culmination of history's progress. Significant occurrences in politics and finance are speculated to be orchestrated by an unduly influential cabal operating through many organizations. Numerous historical and current events are seen as steps in an on-going plot to achieve world domination through secret gatherings and decision-making processes.
