It is believed that the world economy is controlled by Masons. Who they are, many do not know for sure, in connection with which there are a lot of different legends, speculations and gossip. They are often talked about, envied, accused of all human troubles, and sometimes attributed to the mystical qualities obtained through secret knowledge. But in fact, this is mainly due to the lack of reliable information. It is common for people to explain everything incomprehensible and unknown with the help of magic and mysticism.
The history of the creation of the brotherhood
If we go deeper into history and operate with exclusively confirmed facts, then a society of Masons (the union of free masons, as they call themselves) was created in England. In the 12th century, a kind of workshop movement appeared in this European country, consisting of artisans who wore special uniforms and possessed certain privileges due to their high prosperity and position in society.
The prime of the movement is the 15th century. At this time, it was the masons guild that received additional privileges from the king himself. They had the right to free movement within the state, wearing a uniform and were considered representatives of the most influential guild. It was during this period that the term "Masons" appeared. Who are they now, after 6 centuries? This is a question the answer to which is ambiguous.
