Mara Salvatrucha aka MS-13 is a gang started in Los Angeles, Ca in the 1980's by Salvadorans in the states. Most of it's members are of Salvadoran, Honduran or Guatemalan descent, but any race can join. Their orignial name was the Mara Salvatrucha Stoners but they dropped the Stoners part and added the 13 when they joined the Mexican Mafia. The 13 stands for the 13th letter of the alphabet which is an ''M'' which stands for Mexican Mafia. Any Gang with 13 at the end of their name are controlled by Mexican Mafia doesn't matter their race u don't only have to be Mexican to be under Mexican Mafia just like u don't only have to be African American to be Blood, Crip, Folk Nation, People Nation etc.

*Ms 13 don't war with Eighteen Street Gang anymore due to the fact that Eighteen Street is also controlled by Mexican Mafia

*Their main rivals now are the Bloods since Nuestra Familia(former main rivals) is defunct and most of the ganggs under them either joined Bloods or retired.

*Crips are also allies of MS-13

The ''13'' in MS-13 means they are under control of the Mexican Mafia cause the letter ''M'' is the 13th letter of the alphabet.

Will MS-13 accept Mexican members?

the 13 in MS-13 is for the letter M. MS 13 pays homage to the Mexican Mafia for settling the rivalry between MS 13 and 18th Street Gang. I would assume they would accept Mexican inmates. "The majority of the gang is ethnically composed of Salvadorans, Hondurans, Guatemalans, and Nicaraguans."
