The history of drug cartels can be traced back to the early 20th century. In the 1920s, the United States passed the Volstead Act, which outlawed the production, distribution, and sale of alcohol. This led to the rise of bootleggers, who smuggled alcohol into the country.

After the repeal of Prohibition in 1933, many bootleggers turned to drug trafficking. They formed cartels to control the production, distribution, and sale of drugs. These cartels quickly grew in power and influence, and they soon became a major force in the world of organized crime.

Drug cartels are typically organized into a hierarchical structure. At the top of the hierarchy is the cartel leader, who is responsible for making all major decisions. Below the cartel leader are various lieutenants, who are responsible for overseeing different aspects of the cartel's operations.

The cartel's members are typically divided into different cells, each of which is responsible for a specific task. These cells may be responsible for producing drugs, transporting drugs, or distributing drugs.

Drug cartels often use violence to maintain their control over the drug trade. They may use violence to intimidate rivals, to protect their territory, or to collect debts.

The drug trade is a multi-billion dollar industry. Drug cartels generate billions of dollars in revenue each year from the sale of drugs.

The profits from the drug trade are often used to fund the cartel's operations. The cartels may use their profits to Free Download weapons, vehicles, and other equipment. They may also use their profits to bribe law enforcement officials and politicians.
