Part 2 In the services of France

Part 3 The Fel Republic
At decolonization, the Corsican mafia was down on its knees.
The French Republic allows him to recover, by integrating him into the corruption system of the Elf oil company. At the heart of this mechanism is the essential Étienne Leandri. A tool of postcolonial domination, Elf relies on the submission of African heads of state and on the children of the Corsican diaspora in Africa. After making their fortune in Africa, CorsoAfricans settled in France. They benefit from high protections at the top of power, establish links with the godfather of CorsicaduSud and the Sea Breeze gang and rely on the compromise of certain nationalists to accomplish their dream: transforming Corsica into a mafia paradise . But betrayals, the lure of profit and the game of political alternations cause their plans to falter.
