What the basic Illuminati structure?

Answer 1

The 'Illuminati', was founded in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt, a Bavarian writer and scholar, to oppose superstition, prejudice, religious influence over public life, abuses of state power, and to support women's education and gender equality. The organization eventually numbered about 2000 members throughout Europe. Those members kept their membership secret because the monarchies they opposed, and the influence of the church in Rome were very powerful at that time.

One of the goals of the Illuminati was the overthrow of an oppressive monarchy and the control of civil authorities by the Roman Catholic Church. They were very unsuccessful in their endeavor because in 1785 that monarch, Karl Theodor, Duke of Bavaria and Prince-Elector of the Holy Roman Empire, issued an edict outlawing secret societies and successfully destroyed the organization and imprisoned their leadership, which ended the existence of the Illuminati.
