In 1282, the French Angevins "held a tight grip on Sicily," and a secret society arose to defeat this oppressive organization. The battle cry of this rebellious group was:
"morte alla Francia Italia anelia!" (Italian for "death to the French is Italy's cry!"),
and if the first letters of the verse are taken, the anagram MAFIA is deciphered.
The word Mafia was first published in 1862 in a play by Giuseppe Rizzuto, called "I Mafiosi della Vicaria" (The Mafia in the Vicarage") about a secret criminal group in the prisons of Palermo.
In Sicily, the word mafia tends to mean "manly", and is often applied to someone without necessarily meaning they were a criminal. Sicily has had to adapt to numerous invasions: Arabs in the ninth century, Norman's in the 11th century, French in the 12th, Spanish in the 15th, as well as invasions by the Germans, Austrians and Greeks.
Secret societies in the hills were needed to resist foreign rulers. These societies were formed not only to try and defeat the French rulers but also to protect and feed the Italian families in the villages of Palermo and surrounding areas. Since most of the villagers were related, each village picked a member to head their family. These heads of families were called (capodecina or capos for short).The capodecina would pick men from the village to take with him to the hills. Before the men left for the hills they would have to pledge their loyalty, support and Omert.

[[Here's how the rules work. The lower ranks get one messup only, the higher ranks will be allowed more flexibility. It will work like a warn system, once you exceed your number of warns, you'll be kicked from the gang, usually permanent. If the kick was for something that is seen less harsh, OR if you have proved to us over an extended period of time that you have changed, you may be given a second shot. Be warned that this second shot is your ONLY other chance, we don't believe in the word 'third' here.]]___________________________________________________________________________________________(http://i431.photobucket.com/albums/qq40/S4MMY_94/vbfskins.png)
