Crime[]
In Germany, the underworld is dominated by the Russian Vory and the coalition of European crime families of the Mafia. The Russians are strongest in the north and east, and the Mafia is strongest in the south and west. In Germany there are other organized crime groups present; the Grey Wolves, the Albanian Fares, the Yakuza, the Triads, and Romanian gangs. Cologne is Triad territory and Dusseldorf is Yakuza territory.
Germany is also plagued by many gangs. The autobahn has the problem of motorized gangs (e.g. the Raubritter) which are modern bands of highwaymen and the various biker gangs (both the go-gangs and the more traditional outlaw motorcycle clubs). When it comes to urban gangs, both the Rhine-Ruhr sprawl and Berlin are notorious for street gangs.
