History

Understanding all about Mafia history and its origins

The origin of the Mafia family is considered to be a disputed topic. There are several people who are of the belief that this group has originated during the medieval period. This group according to them was actually a secret society that was sworn to provide protection to the Sicilian people, who were then oppressed during the 15th century by Catalan marauders. But very little historical facts and evidence is present to suggest this. Legends involving the ‘Robin Hood’ might have associated with this group at that point of time. It is quite feasible that this group had existed as means for those honorable and righteous rebels, whose mission was to defend the Sicilians from the then oppressive Northern Italian and Roman control as well as external invasion by the barbarians. However, this theory has less importance with many modern scholars.

Formation of the mafia family

Several historians and experts are of the belief that this group had been formed during the later stage of Feudalism. The then aristocratic feudal lords, who lived generally in their big country mansions, had their land to be looked after and managed by their local managers known as the Gabelloti. These men were known to have compelled poor people to work for the estates, but offered them extremely poor wages. A possible method used by them was to have local intermediaries to be employed, presently regarded as the local mafia bosses. Many of the Gabelloti had become minor barons, but few of the corrupted ones often had refused the post, to become well known Mafioso.

However, with Feudalism being abolished, it had become much more essential for the group to have the peasants intimidated for paying taxes to Barons and also had a share of it. However, the group did even represent the local tradesmen, farmers and common people’s will. Often they were paid-off by them for justice or settling scores that was to be obtained through maiming or killing someone. It is for this reason that misconception of the Mafioso being ‘Knights’ or ‘Robin Hood’ arose. From being ‘friend of friends’, they went on to become ‘men of honor’. The Sicilians’ clannish nature and dislike for oppressive hereditary aristocratic law enforcement, is said to have developed a favorable climate towards the formation of the mafia members and group. This group might not have been created by the nobility, however, unwillingly allowed creation of social conditions, facilitating their macabre growth.

Twas The Night Before…

Twas the night before Christmas and a man by the name of Fade was getting ready for his holiday season as he randomly went on a killing spree one day catching the majority of American Mafia by surprise. Attacking any and all mafiosi he happened to run across. He didn’t discriminate as multiple gangsters from all the top empires, Barzini, Lucchese, and Noodles had fallen victim to this random massacre.

 

Everyone was doing the holiday thing and nobody who could handle this event seemed to be present. LeftyTwoGunz was away handling things so he called the two men he could count on to take care of this situation. Benny Noodles and Ric received a call from Lefty and they quickly got to work. Searching into the next morning which was Christmas Eve.

 

Mr Benny still on the hunt arrived in Los Angeles, California that morning following a lead that his target Fade would be there. As Benny headed towards his destination he received a text message updating him of Fades location. He pulled into the harbor and searched for warehouse 18. He eventually found it and noticed two box trucks parked at the loading dock. There was two all black sedans parked on the side and a man smoking a cigarette.

 

Benny sat in his car scoping out the warehouse. All appeared clear. Once the man smoking jumped in his car and left Benny exited the vehicle and made his way to the side door of the warehouse. Once inside he made his way up the flight of stairs to his immediate left. Down the hall he slowly walked with his gun in hand. With the silencer attached Benny wanted to be quick so he could make his 12 o’clock lunch appointment with Mrs Tatiana Noodles. If he missed this lunch then it would be the couch or the dog house for Benny.

 

A door opened and out walked two men. Benny quickly jumped into a storage closet and stayed quiet as the two men walked by. They was headed to the vending machines. With lunch quickly approaching and Fades two body guards distracted Benny jumped into action. Kicking in the door Benny emptied his clip. Fade with his quick reaction time pulled a gun and fired back. The 45 caliber rounds hit fade in his chest pushing him back into his chair, and rolling across the floor. The chair continued to roll until he smashed through the window and fell two stories onto the concrete. Benny loomed down to make sure the job was done. He took a quick picture with his phone and sent it to Lefty.

 

Benny made his way back to Maryland just in time for lunch. With nearly two mins to spare he arrived cool as a cucumber. Tatiana smiled and kissed her husband as he seated himself. How was your day love? Benny replied “Smashing”
