Magisterian mafia

The Magisterian mafia (French: Mafia magistérais) is a collective of various organized crime elements originating in Magisteria. Any mafia group can be referred to as a "organized criminal syndicate" (OCS), and the names of the groups are known to originate in the Greek alphabet.

The origins of today's Magisterian organized crime can be traced back to the pre-communist Republic of Magisteria era, but it wasn't until the four-way Civil War of 1924-28 that certain gangsters emerged as leaders of prison groups throughout prison camps with a generally well-defined code of honor. Members are gender-equally distributed, with female leaders in some syndicates, but are frequently portrayed in the media as males in sharp suits.

At their peak, the Magisterian mafia had a strong presence in Magisterian media and operated on a global scale. The number of mafia members and quasi-members peaked at over 190,000 in 1956. However, this number has dropped dramatically, owing to changing market opportunities and several legal and social developments in Magisteria that discourage membership growth.

Unlike other organized crime syndicates, the Magisterian mafia has its own unique model and set of principles. Each syndicate is classified through their names originating from the Greek alphabet, and the four most powerful syndicates are grouped together in a governing body called 'The Alphabet'. Because of the prevalence of female leaders and a history of LGBTQ+ leaders, they are possibly the most socially progressive crime society in the world.
