<P>The Development of XVA Corporation in the 21st century
<P>
<P>Draft #18
<P>
<P>Synopsis: To the general public, XVA Corporation is a megacorporation based in Vladivostok, Russia. Started out in the military industry, now focusing on several scientific fields (its current focus being nanotechnological research). The corporation can be described as the de facto ruler of the Russian Far East, as well as the most stable political entity within Russia.

<P>What we currently know as XVA Corporation began as an undisclosed military research group within the Soviet Union. In the 1990s, as a prelude to the break-up of the Illuminati, XVA was formed by a former Illuminatus in the Russian Far East. Partially influenced by Aleksandr Dugin's thoughts with an inherent internationalist streak, by the 2020s XVA Corporation had practically become the true seat of power in Far Eastern Russia. The Ministry for Development of Russian Far East, formed in 2012, was assimilated by XVA's agents shortly after its foundation. As the separatism and economic instability tore the Russian governmental functions into pieces, the Far East under XVA thrived. The Novikov family formed the ruling elite, while the rest of the country was practically forced into anarchy. It must have been a grand moment for Gennady to witness this ostensible greatness before passing away and his daughter, Alexia, taking over. Educated in both Oxford and Harvard, XVA under Alexia Novikova expanded the company's influence way beyond its traditional military-related fields, most notably into scientific research. Its humanitarian branch became known world-wide due to its assistance to the newly-formed International City of Berlin in the 2030s.

<P>MJ12 and XVA?
<P>
<P>MJ12 has always had trouble at trying to make or keep Russia under its control, but they appeared to be largely indifferent to XVA for a long time. Several documents strongly suggest that MJ12 may have believed to have been in control of the corporation for the entire time, but even then the never utilized the unique state of stability in the region. Even though many American scientists were already defecting to XVA's ranks in the 2020s and the 2030s, it was only after the formation of X-51 when dissenting MJ12 scientists were more enthralled by XVA as well - all in apparent secrecy, of course. At this time, MJ12 seems to finally have realized that something sketchy was going on.

<P>
<P>Conclusion: There's no doubt that MJ12's plans of unleashing "The Gray Death" in the near future is also designed to suffocate XVA in the crib. The surprising success of Project Mad Ingram, as opposed to their other much long-term nanoaugmentation project, must have made them increase their efforts and take care of XVA before they have to suffer from the harsh realization that they could have prevented the corporation from flourishing many years before.
