Diego Almagro

Diego Almagro was the original leader of the Federation.

In 2015, Almagro ordered the execution of all North American citizens in Federation territory, essentially declaring war against the United States. July 8th 2015, the U.S. responded to Almagro's actions via Operation: Return to Sender. When trying to escape the battle in a personal chopper, Almagro was followed by the Ghosts, an elite team of U.S. operatives, and was killed by gunshot fired by Elias Walker. His death was meant to slow the progress or even cripple the Federation before it could become a world superpower. Despite Almagro's death, the Federation still grew and expanded until it attacked the ODIN space station in 2017.
