History

Although Danistarab organised crime similar to today’s crime families can be traced to the 10th century and was a cause of widespread international concern since 1912, most modern crime families such as the Hadad family can be traced to the late 1940s or early 1950s. They made headlines internationally for the assassination of Sultan Suleiman Khan of Sharifistan. Since the start of the 2nd Sharifistani Civil War they have mostly been operating in Sharifistan.
