_A RUNDOWN HISTORY_

Victoria City,a city in which by the 1850s had pioneered way for the US Oil Shale Industry and Petroleum industry,also well known for efficiency in Coal,Silver and Steel Mining,the city has had great success.Victoria City is located in the east of US America,right in the coastal belt which joins its vicinity with places such as New York City and New Jersey Among others

It was created during the colonial era of the British Empire and was named after Viceroy Elizabeth Victoria who was third in line to the British throne.She lived there so it was only appropriate the British Government name it after her.It has always been like that even after the USA gained its independence in the late 1700s.

Victoria city Is divided into two parts.The Victoria City mainlands as well as Stanford island in which the two are joined by the huge and iconic Reddington Bridge

Chapter 1:The Sin City Ripper

Scipione "The Ringo Joe" Maranzano was born in Palermo,Sicily in 1896 under a very poor subsistence farming family to which from a young age had to his father's dismay always shown signs of desire to the life of a Criminal.Even at school he had opened a Protection Ring to which if you didn't want to take a beating,had to pay him a considerable share of your lunch money,and he ran the ring with efficiency,proving that he was born to be a leader.Very few in school resisted against him,and in that very few was Salvatore Fiorentino,whom although was just 4 years younger than him(born in 1900 on the same island),showed the exact same amount of intensity and willingness to fight.The two clicked instantly

Another fellow to take note of was Dante "The Hitman" Verratti whom unlike Scipione and Salvatore was born in Rome,Italy in 1899 under the hard gripping hand of a very strict and controlling mafia Chief who was also his father.Although he lived the high life he had always wanted to cut himself free from his father's brutal hands.You see,when he was just 12 he saw the brutality of his father first hand when he and his mother took a beating which landed them in the hospital.So it wasn't the ideal life,and his Cousin in his eyes was the one being groomed to be the Boss and heir to his father's mafia Clan although he like his cousin had shown desire to embark onto the criminal life,he felt his father had disowned him from the start and despised him with a passion.His father thought of him as being soft and too young to be a leader,and this was proven when he sent him away to Palermo,Sicily to live with his grandmother and help her with her grape farm.As an italian he sometimes faced hostility from the local Sicilians but it died down in time when he showed them what he was capable of by means of violence.It wasn't all bad because this was when he met Salvatore and Scipione.The three instantly clicked because they all dreamt of escaping the hard life of Sicily and living the high life in the land of opportunity - America.

The high crime rate of America seemed to them like a paradise for criminals,and in 1924 their dream was realized when Dante's Uncle living in Victoria City arranged for them to come to America to live with him and help him with his business - Paulo's Ristoranté,in Bowman's Hill(A large district in Victoria City)by cleaning the dishes and serving the meals.

It was all too apparent to Scipione and Dante that the Mafia had a fearsome hard grip on Victoria City and it's way of life,from the Kingman's Industrial District to the city's Central District all the way to Stanford Island the Mafia roamed the streets as if they were untouchable,but only one Mafioso caught the eye of Scipione when he walked through the doors of Paulo's Ristorante and he was assigned to serve him - Cosimo DiCaprio.You see Cosimo was what you would call a Moustache Pete,a real traditionalist,an old school mafioso who went to the most local of restaurants and used the most local barbershop one could think off,he in some cases respected people regardless of social status BUT he ruled the streets of the Kingman Industrial district as well as Bowman's Hill like a king and was a well known and well feared Mafia Warlord.

Cosimo DiCaprio was born in Milan,Italy in 1868 and moved to Sicily at a young age where he was instantly absorbed into the life of a Mafia Wiseguy.He was forced to run from Sicily after his old boss agreed to sacrifice him to the rival Mafia Clan in order to bargain peace.With the help of his friends he found out about this treachery and boarded a Sugar Cane ship headed to the USA thus instantly escaping certain death.

He arrived in Victoria City,USA via harbour in 1898 and within five years had already made his presence felt.He did jobs for local criminal bigshots which in turn he frequently betrayed in order to gain more power and by 1905 he had already formed what was to be known as the DiCaprio Crime Family which dominated the Victoria City crime scene.Initially there had been three other mafia families in Victoria city - The Brunetti Crime Family,The Carvelli Crime Family and The Lusillo Crime Family,but by 1906 he waged war on all three of them and had them all almost completely wiped out from Victoria City and its underworld,he became known as the "Sin City Ripper" for his gruesome killings and hits he put out on people.

Cosimo DiCaprio became extremely powerful,he controlled it all,from Illegal gamblings all over the city mainlands to Prostitution in Stanford Island,he had control over the biggest protection ring in the city and controlled half the Judiciary,having judges,politicians and big time businessmen in his pocket,he was even rumoured to having connections with US President James Clinton to some levels.

Scipione knew for a fact that he could never take on this big time gangster,so in his eyes he had to bide his time,well for now...
