Best Answer

The Illuminati was an organization (1776-1785) of enlightened intellectuals whose goal was the overthrow of the oppressive monarchy controlled by the church in Rome. They were very unsuccessful in their endeavor because that monarch successfully destroyed the organization and imprisoned their leadership.

The Illuminati are the subject of many conspiracy theories today. People that believe in conspiracy theories think the Illuminati still exist and that they are a group of powerful people that are trying to take over the world.

The only Illuminati that exists today is the invention of writers and bloggers who enjoy feeding the imaginations of paranoid and reality-challenged individuals who are unable to grasp real social issues.

The Illuminati is one of the world's most persistent conspiracy theories.
