What’s the most common mistake players make here?

Mixing up a group’s place of origin with where it’s most active today is the most frequent pitfall.

Global organized crime groups quiz

About this quiz

What you’ll practice

Identify well-known organized crime groups and connect them to the regions they’re commonly linked with, including cross-border influence and diaspora footprints.

You’ll also sharpen your ability to separate similarly named groups and avoid mixing up where they originated versus where they operate today.

Format and difficulty

Each question comes with 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can think carefully before you answer.

Pick the question count you want to play, then choose a difficulty setting; “Mixed” balances straightforward region matches with tougher items that require more context.

Common pitfalls to avoid

Confusing origin country with primary area of influence (they’re not always the same)
Mixing up groups with similar names, aliases, or splinter factions
Overgeneralizing by continent when the question expects a specific region
Assuming every group operates globally rather than regionally
Ignoring historical shifts (crackdowns and alliances can change hotspots)

How the challenge stays fair

Difficulty is balanced by combining recognizable, high-profile organizations with less obvious regional pairings, so newcomers can learn while experienced players still get tested.

If you miss a question, use it as a cue to revisit the region’s political and migration context—those details often explain why certain groups took root.
