The Ndrangheta is a European mafia organization, also known as the "Octopus". It is based in the southern Italian region of Calabria.
The Ndrangheta is considered one of the most powerful criminal organizations in the world, with annual revenue surpassing that of McDonald's and Deutsche Bank combined
Ndrangheta clans expanded their operations across Europe, Australia, and the Americas.
The 'Ndrangheta, rooted in the southern region of Calabria, has surpassed Sicily's more famous Cosa Nostra Mafia to become Italy's most powerful mafia group, which operates across the world.
Criminologist Anna Sergi, of the University of Essex in England, says the group's name has Greek origins -- the word "andranghateia" refers to a "society of men of honour", and "andrangatho" means "to do military actions".
The group has only been classed as mafia under Italian law since 2010, but it dates back at least to the unification of Italy in 1861.
The ‘Ndrangheta are one of Italy’s oldest criminal organizations, forming in the 19th century in Calabria.
The FBI, however, says the 'Ndrangheta was formed in the 1860s
