This is a good question. So many variables. I'm going to have to go to the mountaintop with this one. Until I find a reasonable answer, I'm going with The Little Rascals.
I'm still mulling over this topic. Being from California and living out in San Berdoo for a while, it's hard not to like the Hells Angels. They have a unique mythos and have chapters worldwide. Their cultural imprint surpasses many other criminal organizations. Plus, they're the original 1%ers.
I'd like to throw in a certain Prison Gang. La EME. Although they don't make as much money as other organizations, the fact that they have such a strong influence throughout prisons makes them VERY dangerous. They're MO is to tax other organized criminals. They let you know that one day, someone in your organization will get locked up. To make their prison stay a lot safer, best to pay the tax.
Russian organized criminals were smarter than other criminals. Not only did they pay the tax, when Russians get locked up in Cali, they hang with the Southside. Russians are not only tough but smart.
I try to stay away from gangs or mafias. That is why I was always surprised when I found out I knew someone who was friends with one of the local mafia leaders boss or the son of the mafia boss. I was surprised because this guy who had these friends was always talking religion at work and bible studies, etc. among his work group. Then I see him at the strip club one night with his friends and he bought me a table dance asking me to keep quiet. I could tell he was nervous at work wondering if I was going to talk and ruin his reputation. I kept quiet. You never know when a secret could come in handy. I moved away and didn't regret that choice.
The Russians were said to run a few of my favorite clubs about a decade ago. Now here is one I read about a few years ago a Calabrian "Mafia" known as the Ndrangheta. I thought the name itself was cool sounding, even if I can't figure out how to pronounce it. They had gotten so entrenched in Calabria that the Italian Government sacked the mayor and all 30 city councilors of Regio Calabria, the main city in Calabria. They had even shown up in the U.S. in an intimidation scheme in Pennsylvania Mining towns. Their revenue in 2007 was estimated at $50 Billion.
if you like the Russian Mafia stuff check out the documentary Mark of Cain its about Russian Mob tattoos and there meanings. Its an interesting documentary.
My brother rides in a MC that is affiliated with the Hell's Angels so if I ever got into a serious bind I would think of asking for their help before any other.
My ATF had a very possessive regular for a year or so. He was Italian, owned a refuse removal company, a sewerage removal company, an excavation company, etc. he held a private Christmas Party at the club one year and hired every "extras" dancer for the night and paid them each $2000 for the night.
He wanted my ATF to stop dancing, move into a condo he offered to buy her and just be his "girlfriend". His wife & kids need not know. He claimed to be connected and flashed $$ around big time.i was with her in a hotel one time when he called her and offered her $4000 to accompany him & two other guys and their girlfriends on a 3 day deep fishing trip. She turned him down. It was an offer she could refuse.

I encountered some outstanding Albanian 'businessmen' on two different occasions in Marseille.
Marseille is not a particularly enticing town. Albanian 'businessmen' belong there.
