Italian Mafia
The Italian Mafia originally started in the mid-19th century in Sicily. The
Sicilians called it the
Cosa Nostra, meaning "our thing". It is said that the men of the Italian mafia, those who are a part of Cosa Nostra and daily risk their lives for their families, do not feel the need to name their organization anything. The Sicilians, those who were not a part of the Cosa Nostra, believed that the men were role models and protectors. Several men and women referred to the Cosa Nostra as honorable, noble and generous.In the late-19th century, it began to spread to the United States, mostly towards the East Coast region. New York became one of the capital states in the U.S. for the Italian mafia; the
Bonanno family, the
Colombo family, the Gambino family, the Genovese family, and the Lucchese family. The mafia continued to spread out through the United States to Chicago, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Kansas City, and several other places.Most of the Italian
mafia's Capo di Tutti Capi - the boss of all bosses - have been put behind bars or are currently in the process of being indicted. While that means the
Underboss has taken over, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has a myriad of ideas and ways to bring down the Italian mafia. Many hope this happens, seeing as how they have become more criminal since the organization first began, but there are a few people in the world who still look up to these Uomimi D'onore - "men of honor" - and hope that their reign continues.

The italian mafia is the first one which pops into the head of any one who hears the word "mafia". It is the only true mafia. The italian mafia, or the family (not
cosanostra), are respected and loved by their people. A "mafioso" as some refer to them as,does his job to make the life of his people easier. Any crimal acts takin up by the mafia are done for the good of their people. Anyone who disturbes the italian deals with all of them. They are also experts of getting the job done, as long as no questions are asked. The one thing they frown upon in the mafia are snitches. "Never take sides against the Family", even though this was said by a
movie character, this still applies.
Mafioso's aren't criminals, they are problem solvers, and buisnessmen who make their people happy.

a
mafia is a family of people who protect each other. A mafia is a family of people who when find out their baby was raped and
partly murdered from it, isn't going to let the people that did,
breathe right ever again.

Mafia men (mafiosi) are very dangerous criminals, mostly murderers on their own or on commission. The goal of mafia is power, and they achieve this keeping people in deep fear. If you disagree with a mafioso, you'll die. If not you, any other member of your family will, children included, probably more than one.
Mafia has many different "flavours", according to the region they rule in. Mafia in Sicily,
'Ndrangheta in Calabria,
Camorra in Campania,
Sacra Corona Unita in
Puglia. Despite their local differences, they all act under the same criminality pattern: threats, blackmail and murder, sometimes carnages. Their major monetary income is usually by drug dealership.
Don't mistake italian mafia with italian folklore: they're really different issues. Italian mafia is the worst italian calamity.

There is an Italian mafia agent liver here in
Outer Mongolia, he wears his leather coat and keeps his automatitic weapon in his mafia style breif case, His name is hugo(a typical mafia name). He shuffles around at the dead of night and scares the living day lights out of small defenceless children. He is soon to be promoted to a Mafia God and he will rule the Outer Mongolian regions. He also drives a vauxall
chavalier which is most un-mafia like. Probably to keep a low profile though. His hair is gelled in the most mafia-ish style, short and gelled back! He will never leave the proximity of his house without his leather coat and breifcase. Every thing from head to foot is mafia-ish even his leg! If anyone see's him shuffling arount
outer mongolia then they should keep far away because he is convicted
kitten killer. DANGER
