The Society of Jesus, commonly known as the Jesuits, is a Roman Catholic religious order founded in 1540. Renowned for their discipline, intellectual rigor, and missionary zeal, the Jesuits have significantly shaped the modern world's religious, educational, and political landscapes. In fact, they have done a good enough job to earn the moniker of the "Pope's Soldiers."
