Any info if Rome has its own OC, or like Dell's example above is Roman OC an extension/wing/tentacle of the southern Mafia's?

Thanks in advance.


Rome once had its own criminal organization called the "Banda Della Magliana". The widely popular series Romanza Criminale is based on the exploits of the gang, but I guess everything in the series should be taken with a grain of salt. They've been gone since the beginning of the 90s anyways and were never big or powerful enough to become a nationwide let alone internationally operating group.

Rome is a big city so there's bound to be some organized crime going on. From what I've read the Casalesi have a known presence and several suburbs have seen activity of a couple of Ndrangheta clans.
There's a lot more going on in Milan for that matter. Cosa Nostra, Ndrangheta, Camorra and SCU all have a presence in the suburbs outside of several foreign criminal organizations, which are mostly Balkan (Albanian, Serb-Montenegrin and Bulgarian) and Chinese in origin.
