The Round Table
SUMMARY
Rhodes' will funded a secret society to run the world in English. It built think tanks instead — or as well.
FULL DOSSIER
Cecil Rhodes' will — the actual probated document — funded 'the extension of British rule throughout the world' via a secret society structured in circles of initiation. Milner executed it: the Kindergarten ran South Africa, the Round Table groups seeded the dominions, and the network's public faces became Chatham House and the CFR. This is not alleged; Quigley, given access to the papers, published it in 'The Anglo-American Establishment' and complained only that the group hid. The web treats it as the missing link fossil: the one documented case of a wealthy man's secret society measurably steering geopolitics for two generations.
