Resident Evil - Umbrella Corporation

It is a major international player in a number of markets including pharmaceuticals, medical hardware, defense, and computers along with more clandestine operations utilizing genetic engineering and bio weapons. The company also has a more public face, producing cosmetics and consumer products.

One of Umbrella's subsidiaries is a private military contractor with a highly-trained security force capable of rescue, reconnaissance, and para-military operations. The corporation uses the force to secure and protect its assets and high profile employees.

Birkin and Wesker used this as a diversion for their own plans to leave Umbrella, taking their research with them. Wesker, having formed Raccoon Police Department's (R.P.D.) elite S.T.A.R.S. two years earlier, would develop a plan to lure the unit to the Arklay Research Facility to obtain battle data from the conflict that would follow with the S.T.A.R.S. members and various Bio-Organic Weapons (B.O.W.s). Of the two S.T.A.R.S. teams, the first to be deployed was Bravo Team, and it was Bravo Team's Rebecca Chambers' and Billy Coen's intervention that eventually stopped Marcus' plans for revenge within the Arklay Training Facility, resulting in the facility's destruction.

Umbrella's fortunes failed to improve after the Raccoon City incident. The US government was forced to take extreme measures to ensure the spread of the T-Virus was stopped. "Mission: Code XX" was approved, and Raccoon City was annihilated by a missile strike

Shortly afterwards, Claire Redfield, sister of S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team member Chris Redfield and also a survivor of the Raccoon City incident, broke into Umbrella's Paris facilities in search of her brother. She was captured and sent to Umbrella's facility on Rockfort Island. While there, she witnessed Wesker attack the island in search of the T-Veronica Virus, another derivative of the T-Virus. Escaping the island, she found herself trapped at the South Pole Facility, where Edward Ashford's granddaughter, Alexia Ashford, awoke from a self-induced coma with a desire to establish a new order. Alexia was eventually killed and the South Pole Facility destroyed by Chris and Claire Redfield.


In 2003, Umbrella's stronghold came under attack by special forces troops led by Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine, and Wesker. While the special forces secured the facility and destroyed the Talos project, Wesker infiltrated the facility and assassinated Vladimir, stealing all the data from the U.M.F.-013. Wesker then turned incriminating data over to the prosecutors working against Umbrella, and testified. Five years after Raccoon City's destruction, Umbrella was finally found guilty on all charges of its involvement in that massacre and an international manhunt was begun to bring Spencer to justice.

One year later, Wesker revealed that he has plans to rebuild Umbrella.

Some of the Wesker scenes in the beginning and even in the vid itself are from RE: TUC and the RE Remake for the Gamecube. As for 2:02, I think that's from the RE Remake, if I'm not mistaken.

[DarkTamerSteph]

Most were from Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles.
