Greazeburger Incorporated, that merry bunch. I used to be a salesman for them, ya know. Before I fucked up and got turned into whatever this paragraph is. It was the happiest time of my life and I just didn't know it. I even had the classic getup, dress shirt with striped suspenders, a straw boater - even shoes shined so much I could see my toothy grin in them if the sun hit them right.
I don't have any of that now, not since I flushed my dream sale down the toilet. All I have is this space on the page, right here, and just a few sentences of space to lure in new customers to the Greazeburger Literary Universe. And that's that!
Have fun reading!

GRU Division "p"
Originally known as the ЧД AKH ("ChD AKH", or Forth Department Abnormal Occurrences Commission), it was established in the early 1935 by direct decree of J.V. Stalin, its first task being the investigation of the murder of S.M. Kirov.
During WWII, the Commission expanded into the newly reorganized GRU as Division "P" - Psychotropic's, working to counteract anomalous threats from the SS, Ahnenerbe, and the Vatican, and to capture and study anomalous artifacts both at home and abroad for the benefit of the Soviet government. Division "P" has carried on with on with this role throughout the Cold War, making Foundations operations in the countries of the Comintern difficult.
After 1991, rapid restructuring, coupled with budget cuts and the decommissioning or sale of significant assets, resulted in numerous defections of their personnel (A significant proportion of both Chaos Insurgency and MC&D operatives in Eastern Europe originated from GRU Division "P" ranks) and the flooding of the European black market with anomalous items formerly in their possession. Currently, this Group of Interest poses little direct threat to the Foundation.
Herman Fuller's Circus of the Disquieting
Herman Fuller's Circus of the Disquieting is purported to be a circus of anomalous origin and purpose. Currently, there is no evidence that this group exists beyond the allegations of various sapient SCPs and a handful of damaged non-anomalous artifacts. Most related objects typified by humanoid status utilized anomalous deformities for the sake of performance in some way, such as SCP-1884 and SCP-2902. Others appear to be typical fairground objects d'art, such as SCP-3717 or SCP-1695. Typically, objects related to Herman Fuller's Circus of the Disquieting are found at fairgrounds where the show is said to have 'performed'.
The Horizon Initiative
The Horizon Initiative is an organization created in the late 1960s by various influential sects in the main three Abrahamic religions as a response to the growing number of anomalous activities and groups which they perceived as threats. Thought the full extent of their goals is uncertain, the Horizon Initiative is known to target SCP objects, ether with the intention of retrieving or destroying them, depending on each item's perceived place in their dogma.
The Initiative is led by a tribunal composed of leader from the three largest sects involved in it's creation, though a large amount of internal strife often leaves the official leadership in less than full control of the organization. The HI's main combat force, Project Malleus, is generally deployed in anti-cult operations and in SCP retrieval operations.
The Initiative's relations with most other Groups of Interest are the Foundation seem's to be in a state of constant flux; while all parts of the HI perceive the Church of the Broken God and Fifth Church with a degree of hostility (and at times engaging them in armed conflict), sentiment towards the Foundation and the GOC vary greatly, from open hostility to a limited willingness to cooperate, depending on the internal affiliation of individual members.
IJAMEA
The Imperial Japanese Anomalous Matters Examination Agency or IJAMEA (not to be confused with the Foundation precursor IGAMEA, the Imperial German Anomalous Matters Examination Agency), was Japan's official and primary anomaly agency in the period from the Meiji Restoration in 1868 until the end of World War II in 1945. IJAMEA was founded with the purpose to bring Japan up to speed with Western esoterics research, acting as a modern counterpart to pre-existing so-called "primitive" groups. In this capacity, the IJAMEA catalogued hundreds of different anomalous spread throughout Japan and her colonies, conducted extensive research on these, and undertook numerous projects aiming to utilize the anomalous for the greater good of the fledgling Empire.
