He trained the 23 people of Zion to do what they do... remember how Morpheus said something on the lines of "In the beginning, one man had the power to change the Matrix as he saw fit. Then it was prophesized he would return. I think he's you... blablabla..."
Then he just died of old age in Zion probably.
So how does the architect disobey time and space? If Neo's physical body does indeed live on. Then that would mean there are two different time lines. The future or the present, and the past. How does the architect go from the future to the past where he confronts Neo about the descion to eigther reload the matrix or save trinity

I have touched this in a thread I've started. The name, Merovingian, is a quasi-biblical reference. The Merovingians were a line of kings who believed that they were the direct descendants of Jesus through the Madam Mary Madelen.
If we make a lot of assumptions on previous versions of the Matrix, the Merovingian could have been the anomaly. I won't go into all detail here, but look at this. If Smith can copy himself over Bain and enter the real world, what stops one of the anomalies from copying their being over a program in the Matrix to live as a rouge God in the Matrix world?
View all of my posts in the following thread for more detail on the theory.
but still

The Mero isn't Neo, never was. He was a previous version of the one. The prophecy is false in the sense that the person was not reborn, but rather just a anticipated predication.
Neo is "The One" of a line of 6 total One's... This keeps the timeline, proves the prophecy false, and leads to the possibility of the Mero being a previous version of "The One" who choose the Matrix over the real world.

For full info read the thread I created on the subject:
The Merovingian -- Could he have also been "the One"?!

But I'll explain briefly:
We found out that someone who has supirior control over the matrix can copy themselves over others inside the matrix when Smith did this to make multiple Smiths.
We then found out that Smith could copy himself over the mind of a real being who is just hacked in the Matrix - and he would still have control over that being when they exited the Matrix. This happened when Smith overtook Bain in Reloaded.
The Merovingian has the ability to be a previous version of "the One" using the same principles. For whatever reason he choose to stay in the matrix. So, he found a way to copy himself over a machine program shell - in effect becoming that program. Now he no longer is "the One" but a machine program. This does not mean he doesn't carry the same code as the one, but it could mean that he does not possess all the abilities. We just simply do not know what he is and isn't capable of....yet.
Rage> No one is breaking any physical laws. You make the mistake of thinking that Morpheus knows the truth. He doesn’t. This isn’t “Closer to the year 2199”. It’s closer to the year 2699. Every cycle of the Matrix, with it’s integral anomaly has lasted 100 years (Morpheus tells us the length of this current cycle, there is no reason the believe the previous ones were different).
Merovingian: Name of a line of French kings from the 5th to the 8th century. In some literature they claim to descend from Jesus and Mary Magdalene. It’s also the name of a grail order from the 17h century.
There’s a fortiori nothing that says a human’s residual self-image could not be copied into a program. That does NOT prove that the Merovingian is one of Neos predecessors. Please prove that.
And then the big question: So what? What would it do to the story-line? Nothing at all.
