(the acronym stands for Ancient Free and Accepted Masons), is a Continental Freemasonic organization based at Palazzo Vitelleschi, in Rome. It was founded in 1910 as a schism from the Grand Orient of Italy.[1] They are a member of the CLIPSAS, the international association of liberal Freemasonic jurisdictions.
