History:
Helmut Zemo was born to greatness and a legacy of evil. The son of the Nazi scientist Baron Heinrich Zemo, Helmut was brought up to believe that he was destined to restore the glory of the Zemo Estate and continue the expansion of the Empire until he had conquered the world. Born in the 1930s, Helmut spent the early part of his youth in Berlin, developing a fondness for American popular culture imports such as horror films and movie serials. When his father Heinrich accidentally died during a battle with the Allied super-agent Captain America, Helmut Zemo assumed the family business as his birthright.
Helmut blamed the Captain for destroying their family and decided to follow in his father's footsteps and avenge him. As a college graduate with masters in science and engineering, Zemo was able to study and replicate some of Heinrich's inventions such as his father’s disintegrator gun and anti-psychic headband. Helmut eventually attacked Captain America in the costumed guise of the Phoenix, also battling the Captain's new partner the Falcon. In the end, Zemo was accidentally knocked into a vat of Adhesive X.
Although believed dead, Helmut Zemo had in fact survived the experience by escaping through a secret pipe at the bottom of the cauldron. The passage through the boiling liquid left its mark, however, and Zemo's face was severely scarred. Zemo kept out of sight for a period of time, building a retreat for himself in Mexico, recreating more of his father's inventions, and plotting revenge against Captain America.
Helmut Zemo later married the villain known as the Baroneess, a woman named Heike who once claimed to be a reincarnation of Heinrich Zemo. As the Baron and Baroness Zemo, the two lived together in the Castle Zemo ancestral home and abducted a host of neglected and abused children to create an instant family for themselves, but Captain America freed the children and captured the Zemos.
During the Civil War, Zemo later put in motion plans to create a new Masters of Evil. Disguising himself as the heir to the legacy of Citizen V, Zemo led his Masters of Evil in masquerading as the Thunderbolts, a new heroic super-team replacing the Avengers, accumulating public trust and resources until they were ready to strike.

The Baron pressed a button on the control panel at his fingertips which lower the video screen so that he could watch the protest over the Superhuman Registration Act before discussing his new plans for HYDRA and A.I.M with Doctor Zola.
As Abraham Lincoln once said, “Public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment, nothing can fail. Without it, nothing can succeed.”
The Baron remained seated on his throne as he rested his forearm on the chair’s arm rest with his hand hanging over the edge.
All shall fall to the inevitable chaos. Out of chaos comes great opportunity for a new order. The Superhuman Registration Act represents a golden opportunity to tear down the existing structures and build new ones. For a time is coming when they will no longer tolerate the implementation of such laws from a nation that has gone astray; and like a lost sheep will naturally follow the bent of their own inclinations.
