    With the mafia issue, if the corruption level in Italy, which is a disgrace for a large first world economy in Europe, was at the same level as Denmark, which has the lowest level of corruption, the mafia's power would be substantially be reduced, maybe to the point where it might even cease to exist, not quite sure on that one. Anyway it's power would diminish, as it relies on corrupt police and government officials! It is a shame you have a mafia, in a country that potentially it could be a much greater industrial power than what it is. It is home to some of the largest high tech and engineering companies in the world. Also they are the biggest builder of passenger ships.

    Environment is not suitable for economical growth the way the north is. Southern Italy including the island of Sicily is literally just rocks.

    It really is a huge divide though, Northern Italy is richer than Spain but Southern Italy is poorer. Overall it kind of evens out, though I'd say Spaniards are slightly more productive.

    Madrid, Navarra, Vascongadas or Catalonia are not poorer than Northern Italy. Not even Lazio is.

    Far Southern Italy has Eastern European-levels of poverty. Parts of Spain can come close but they are still better off.
