In the 20th century, the Mafia in the United States, particularly the Italian-American Mafia, became a powerful organized crime syndicate, deeply involved in activities such as drug trafficking, extortion, and illegal gambling. Prominent families, including the Gambino, Genovese, and Lucchese, dominated various cities, particularly New York. The Mafia's influence extended into legitimate businesses and even political spheres, leading to significant law enforcement efforts, especially during the 1950s and 1960s, when high-profile trials and the establishment of the FBI's Organized Crime Task Force aimed to dismantle these criminal enterprises. Despite these efforts, the Mafia maintained a resilient presence throughout the century, adapting to law enforcement strategies and evolving societal conditions.
