Emergence of elites. Baba, son of Ivan, was unhappy with the established order, which he thought lacked opportunities. Exploiting the fame of his great relative, he started contacting like-minded personalities. Meetings were held in secret, attendance by invitation only.

Their playfield is the whole planet, and when they play, the winner takes all.
