META is the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synergy synergy] of the [[WCG]] and [[Syndicate]]. It inherited from the infrastructures and administration of both entities, and controls virtually everything. While the merging may have appeared as a military coup by the Syndicate, it can also be seen as an accomplishment of the WCG : both sides have reasons to regard the victory as their own. The resulting organization is just as faceless as the WCG or the (pre-Muro) Syndicate. | META is the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synergy synergy] of the [[WCG]] and [[Syndicate]].

The Greek prefix is rarely used on its own (mostly in the context of Internet Technologies, where systems and languages are organized in a few layers of abstraction). Using it on its own gives it an absolute meaning, as it's "beyond ''everything''". Beyond influence, beyond unterstanding. Beyond Good and Evil. | The Greek prefix is rarely used on its own (mostly in the context of Internet Technologies, where systems and languages are organized in a few layers of abstraction).
