You often see these articles pop up every now and then, suggesting that some other ethnic group is taking over from the Mafia in Italy. One recently came out saying that the Albanians are taking over Ndrangheta territory in Calabria. Keep dreaming. Most of what you see taking place these days are alliances, but lots of idiots in the public think that there's some kind of gang war going down.
Lol yeah there's no Albanian OC activity in Calabria. It's all just sensationalist journalism.
Northern Italy is a different area in that regard. Cities like Milan and Turin are open territory. The Mafia is there, as are Ndrangheta, Camorra and SCU. And yes, Albanians, Russians, Serbs/Montenegrins, Nigerians, Chinese, North Africans (Moroccans, Algerians and Tunisians) are all operating there to some degree - but nobody is "taking over" the other. Inter-ethnic gang fights are largely a movie/TV/Grand Theft Auto thing. Especially over here in Europe, I have not yet to come across a major gang war between groups of different backgrounds. Everybody cleans their own house.
