New York City Factions Washington, D.C. Factions

As New York and Manhattan fell apart, people banded together to survive by any means possible. Others took the opportunity to break out of the nearby prison, while others still decided to stay behind in the quarantine and do their believed civic duty by burning out the virus. The inhabitants of Manhattan all have their own origins and their stories.

During the events of Tom Clancy's The Division[]

The Division is a group of elite civilian sleeper agents who work for the U.S. government. They are to be activated during a dire catastrophe or disaster and are the last line of defense when all else fails. Their goal is to save what remains of society and to ensure the continuity of government. Division agents work with the JTF to stabilize Midtown Manhattan.


During the events of Warlords of New York[]

At the beginning of Tom Clancy's The Division 2's Warlords of New York, The Division in Lower Manhattan are in an unfavorable position. After suffering losses at the attack on the Base of Operations at City Hall, the New York agents are then reinforced by the newly-arrived D.C. agents, where they then regroup at the nearby civilian settlement, Haven. After rebounding from the attack on City Hall, The Division soon begins a manhunt to track down rogue agent Aaron Keener, the man responsible for the attack. In order to pinpoint his location, The Division must first find and eliminate his four rogue lieutenants. In the end, The Division is able to eliminate Keener and end the rogue threat in Lower Manhattan.

During the events of Tom Clancy's The Division[]

The Joint Task Force is a coalition of the National Guard, firefighters, police officers, civil volunteers, and members of other civil services. They are all of what remains of their respective groups and work to stabilize the country. Although JTF soldiers were overworked and possessed meager resources, they still work in tandem with The Division to restore order and stability in New York.


During the events of Warlords of New York[]

In Tom Clancy's The Division 2's Warlords of New York, the JTF in Lower Manhattan have been considerably weakened due to the resurgence of the Rikers and Cleaners under the leadership of the Rogue Agents. The JTF has especially seen the ire of Keener's sinister plan, with two biological attacks on the Base of Operations at City Hall, as well as at the JTF base at Castle Clinton. Keener has also used the rogue agents and their respective factions to target the JTF, especially attacking JTF patrols and operations. JTF operations in Lower Manhattan have collapsed entirely, with surviving members either joining the Peacekeepers or are operating at other hinted installations in other parts of the city.

During the events of Warlords of New York[]

The Peacekeepers are a new faction introduced in Tom Clancy's The Division 2's Warlords of New York comprised of surviving civilians and former Joint Task Force members from first-responding organizations (NYPD, FNYC). The Peacekeepers operate out of their settlement, Haven, which was formed a few months ago by ex-JTF members and civilian volunteers. The goal of the Peacekeepers is to restore a semblance of order and peace to the city, as well as to live and thrive without the constant hostility of the other factions. The Peacekeepers are now led by Paul Rhodes, the former lead technician for the JTF and Division at the Base of Operations in Midtown. The Peacekeepers hold a hostile attitude toward The Division initially due to the rising threat of the Rogue Agents, as well as the belief that The Division brings violence with them wherever they go. However, acting Division Commander Faye Lau is able to convince the stubborn Paul Rhodes to allow The Division to use Haven as a temporary Base of Operations to hunt down Keener, which Rhodes reluctantly agrees to. As The Division successfully eliminates the rogue threat and destabilizes the other hostile factions, the Peacekeepers begin to change their tune on The Division, now believing that they are a staunch ally in the fight to restore New York.
