The Philosophers' Legacy was a slush fund of one hundred billion dollars collected by the highest powers in China, the Soviet Union, and the United States around the time of World War II. During World War II, a secret pact was concluded between the Philosophers, that eventually resulted in the creation of the Legacy. Other than the one hundred billion dollars, it also contained a list of names of the Philosophers members. During the Peace Walker Incident in 1974, the Patriots told EVA that the Legacy had been put to "good use."
