Though officially lasting only 11 years, the powerful spell and shadow cast by the Illuminati still looms in the present day, where its influence can be seen in current conspiracy beliefs and actions by powerful individuals working in the shadows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Order of the Illuminati was founded by Bavarian professor Adam Weishaupt in 1776.
