Is the Wolfenstein 3D ROTT/ROTT Triad connected to the real life criminal Triad?
Their is a real life Triad. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triad_(...round_society)

Do you people think that the Triad from Wolfenstein 3D ROTT and ROTT are somehow connected to the real one? If they are not connected, maybe the real life Triad was an inspiration for Wolfenstein 3D Part Two ROTT and ROTT.

The real life criminal Triad seems harmless compared to the fictional one. Both Triads are criminals.

Other than the name, the real life Triads are in no way related to Rise of the Triad.

In Wolf 3D Part II it referred the to the three large corporations that "guided Hitler as a puppet" who called their organization the Triad. In the final product the Triad I think refers to the combined force of General Darian, Sebastian Krist, and El Oscuro. Not sure about that though.

We do know that both the Wolfenstein 3D Triad and the ROTT Triad are connected. Both were Nazis. The original Nazi Triad is probably the Fourth Reich in the Wolfenstein Graphic Novels. I think this makes sense. Wolfenstein 3D Part Two ROTT and ROTT takes place in the same timeline to me. It turns out the real criminal Triad was not harmless at all. They were not just involved with counterfeiting.
