Irish has it pretty wel down, but I cant comment on the first members. :rolleyes: I can add a few things though. It was started by Luciano with the intent of running the mob like a business, in order to make more profit for everyone, also serving as somewhat of a Mob police force. I might be wrong here, but I believe only Italians could hold "seats" but they didnt mind doing business with the Jews and the Irish.The commission's role is usually blown way out of preportion i.e. you gotta have the commission's permission to whack somebody etc etc. Im not sure, but I think its pretty much non-existant in todays (under)world.
