killing little does not mean being less powerful in any case, there are very powerful groups such as the Ndrangheta, the Albanian clans, the Yakuza, the Triads that kill relatively little
Russians, Corsicans etc, more violence means more DISorganized Crime.
yes but it depends... sicilian mafia was very violent for a certain period but as the same time organized (Toto' Riina was boss of bosses)
Mexican cartels seem a bit disorganized
Sicilian Mafia was violent unless Riina passed the mark ordering to kill everybody and the State decided to react and after the maxitrial and the 41 bis and tons of rats,Provenzano understood that is better make money that kill people for every bullshit.
The cartels are in war from 1989 and after so many killing even the mexican state and the mexicans are seriously training to change the situation.
