History
The X-Treme Sanctions Executive, also known by the abbreviation XSE, was founded by Storm, at the behest of the United Nations, in order to police the growing mutant population. Several former X-Treme X-Men members joined her group, including Sage, Bishop and Cannonball. Other X-Men to join their cause were Wolverine, Nightcrawler and Rachel Summers, using her mother's former codename, Marvel Girl.
Whilst on a trip to England, to visit Brian Braddock, the brother of Betsy Braddock, who was murdered on a mission with the X-Men by Vargas, Marvel Girl, Cannonball and Bishop were attacked by The Fury. Sage was able to construct a plan to defeat The Fury, however Cannonball was forced to take a leave of absence to recuperate from his injuries. Although their battle with The Fury had left Brian's ancestral home in ruins, when the XSE returned, they found the house re-built, and Brian and Meggan unharmed. Storm apologised to Brian for his sister's murder, but he did not blame her for what happened, as he knew that Betsy made her own choices. Upon leaving Braddock manor, Rachel sees Jamie, Brian and Betsy's older brother, before he quickly disappears. Sage later felt she had to rejoin the Hellfire Club, in order to keep an eye on Roberto da Costa, who had decided to become the new Lord Imperial, to ensure he was not corrupted by power, like Sabastian Shaw was.
The team was called to Spain, where Psylocke had reappeared alive and unharmed in the exact place of her death. She was placed under arrest by the Spanish government, and Storm's team had been contacted to collect her. The team later visited the Savage Land, where Rachel was subjected to the mind-control of a tribe of advanced dinosaur people, the Hauk'ka, causing her to believe she belonged to their species. She began to subconsciously use her telekinesis to alter her own genome in their image. The Hauk'ka's goal was to use Storm's power to control the weather to destroy humanity. When her powers became unstable, the Hauk'ka and the XSE were forced to make an alliance to stop her from destroying the planet. After their mission was successful, the XSE made peace with Hauk'ka, and Rachel was released from their mind control.
Following the events of M-Day, and the decimation of the majority of the world's mutant populace, the team shifted their attention to aiding the remaining mutant populace, liasing with the US Government's O*N*E program. Storm chose to work in Africa, to help the people of her native land.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“He wrote in prison, not a History of the World, like Raleigh, but an American book which I think will live longer than that. I do not know of such words, uttered under such circumstances, and so copiously withal, in Roman or English or any history.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“... in America ... children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“There is one great fact, characteristic of this our nineteenth century, a fact which no party dares deny. On the one hand, there have started into life industrial and scientific forces which no epoch of former human history had ever suspected. On the other hand, there exist symptoms of decay, far surpassing the horrors recorded of the latter times of the Roman empire. In our days everything seems pregnant with its contrary.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
