==History==
La Famiglia di Machetti is a Sicilian business family which arrived on Shartak, settling in the town of [[Durham]], with the intention of starting up and running a successful business. Or several successful businesses. They had high hopes for several of their family members - positions in Durham's fledgling [[Durham_government|government]], diplomats to other towns and villages, policemen and bankers. They were prepared to sacrifice a great deal for the success of the family.

However, upon arrival, La Famiglia encountered a great deal of ethnic discrimination. The words "Mafia" and "Mobsters" were thrown around by the residents of Durham, and even before most of the family had arrived, they were denounced as criminals.<br>
Accused of crimes they did not commit, and harassed by the powers that be, several members of the family returned to Sicilia to lie low for a while, leaving the youngest cousin, Anthony, to set up operations in Durham.<br>

Anthony Machetti had already managed to set up several trade ventures, transporting medical supplies to the Free Clinic of the [[Independent_Republic_of_Fort_Creedy|Independent Republic of Fort Creedy]], and he quickly put into action the plans of his elders.
He set up the [[Club Palermo]] - an establishment with the purpose of delighting its patrons with wonderfully prepared Sicilian food and drink, and nightly entertainment - in the place of the old headquarters of the Durham Pistoleers. It took several weeks to renovate and rebuild the buildings, but the finished project made it clear in the minds of the public that La Famiglia was in Durham to stay.

Many people allege that La Famiglia di Machetti maintains its business on a system of generous rewards for those who are cooperative and harsh punishments for those who get in the way. Critics point at the Family's policy of administering 'Family Justice' to enemies who cannot be punished under Durham law. This 'Justice' often leaves the victim disfigured and on the verge of death, or kills the victim outright.

However, La Famiglia di Machetti dismisses this criticism as smear campaigns spread by their competitors, and refuses to apologize for any injuries it has inflicted.

==Business==

La Famiglia di Machetti runs the [[Club Palermo]] in Durham, as well as the [[Teatro dell'Arte]], which is next door to the club, but in the same block. There is also a supply trade between La Famiglia and the Independent Republic of Fort Creedy, and the Family is looking to connect its business with that of its former adversaries, La Famiglia di Machitty.

La Famiglia di Machetti does not appreciate vandals, thieves, or murderers in its establishments, and has promised to take matters into its own hands should anyone commit such crimes.
