Organized Crime Groups | Vibepedia

Organized crime groups refer to centralized enterprises that engage in illegal activities, often for profit, and can be found at the transnational, national, or local level. These groups, which include terrorist organizations, rebel groups, and separatists, rely on fear, terror, and intimidation to achieve their goals and maintain control. With a history dating back to the early 20th century, organized crime has evolved to include a wide range of activities, such as drug trafficking, human trafficking, and extortion. According to the United Nations, the global organized crime market is estimated to be worth over $2 trillion annually, with groups like the [[sinaloa-cartel|Sinaloa Cartel]] and the [[camorra|Camorra]] dominating the landscape.
