I've recently mentioned 'the more North you go, the more Gypsies', but I'm not sure after looking up articles about the different mafias in Italy. During the '90s the Venetian mafia was still powerful and their methods more violent than their Southern Italian counterparts. Their membership consists mainly of people of general Italian and Venetian origins. Nowadays they've been severely weakened.
Recently in the news I read about a large operation versus the 'Ndrŕngheta (the Calabrese mafia), whom I believe is currently the strongest criminal organisation active in Italy.
I guess they use different criminals who aren't part of their organisation to do their dirty work from time to time.
