ZwCl 2341.1+0000, a merging galaxy cluster with disturbed X-ray morphologyand widely separated ($\sim$3 Mpc) double radio relics, was thought to be anextremely massive ($10-30 \times 10^{14} M_\odot$) and complex system withlittle known about its merger history. We present JVLA 2-4 GHz observations ofthe cluster, along with new spectroscopy from our Keck/DEIMOS survey, and applyGaussian Mixture Modeling to the three-dimensional distribution of 227confirmed cluster galaxies. After adopting the Bayesian Information Criterionto avoid overfitting, which we discover can bias total dynamical mass estimateshigh, we find that a three-substructure model with a total dynamical massestimate of $9.39 \pm 0.81 \times 10^{14} M_\odot$ is favored. We also presentdeep Subaru imaging and perform the first weak lensing analysis on this system,obtaining a weak lensing mass estimate of $5.57 \pm 2.47 \times 10^{14}M_\odot$. This is a more robust estimate because it does not depend on thedynamical state of the system, which is disturbed due to the merger. Ourresults indicate that ZwCl 2341.1+0000 is a multiple merger system comprised ofat least three substructures, with the main merger that produced the radiorelics occurring near to the plane of the sky, and a younger merger in theNorth occurring closer to the line of sight. Dynamical modeling of the mainmerger reproduces observed quantities (relic positions and polarizations,subcluster separation and radial velocity difference), if the merger axis angleof $\sim$10$^{+34}_{-6}$ degrees and the collision speed at pericenter is$\sim$1900$^{+300}_{-200}$ km/s.
