Throughout both the modern and pre-modern age, right through to the far future, the world is controlled by secret societies well hidden from the eyes of the masses. Various groups, community leaders, organisations, corporations and even entire governments are all viable targets for the influence of secret societies. Each society has a significant 'mission statement' which all members work towards, and several inherent agendas that stem from it. However, there is still room for conflict between the members as to how these goals are achieved and other details, but in most cases, they are quickly resolved.
It is for this reason that the best way for one person or group to influence various factors in the world is to first influence the secret societies, absurd as it may seem. As a person gains power in a field of interest to a certain secret society, the chances of them being contacted increases. From there, playing their cards smartly can lead to prolonged contact, membership, or even a leadership position. This typically how Theta Factions manipulate multiple secret societies.
Most secret societies are officially considered terrorist groups by most governmental forces, or would be if they were known to them. However it is often the case, especially for the Illuminati, that they control the government and are relatively safe.
An organization is not a secret society if it is merely part of the hidden occult community, such as the Agency, the Cabal of Mu or the Blitzwulfen. To qualify as a true secret society, it must be a secret even from the occult community.
