Cartel del Jefe Jalisco

Status summary:
 **Equipment level:** | Custom

Originally being the largest Mexican cartel in the 2020's, as well as having massive influence in South America and the United States, the Cartel Del Jefe Jalisco has grown significantly. Now the Cartel Del Jefe Jalisco has grown to be a global mercantile powerhouse, supplying even large countries like the ████████ ████████ and the █████ ███████ ██████████ with various goods. The Cartel Del Jefe Jalisco's mercantile might is mostly based in the mass production of simple equipment like: Simple firearms (AK's & similar), simple uniforms/equipment, ammunition, and drugs (both recreational and pharmeceutical). Though the Cartel Del Jefe Jalisco also postures their economic prowess through their near total (supposed) monopoly on the post-Chunko Charge world's two most valuable commodities: atomic weapons, and women. Inside of the Cartel Del Jefe Jalisco, it operates on a very feudal-like system of family members, proven Cartel members, or hand picked people who are given status. At the top is El Jefe, who runs the entire nation. Then there is the LSJJ, the Cartel's personal and private PMC, which answers to El Jefe directly, they also serve as a special forces group for the Cartel whenever El Jefe deems necessary; LSJJ has no one else below them, and is essentially a separate branch to the entirety of the Cartel. Directly under El Jefe is the Underboss, who interprets his demands and gives orders to the Cartel, as well as analyzing information from the Cartel and delivering it to El Jefe. There have been many Underbosses since the 2060's allegedly due to El Jefe getting old and needing help, though supposedly he stays healthy with a massive amount of drugs and Serbian tech. The Underboss selects people he sees fit or anyone El Jefe suggests as Provincial Managers, who take 20% of the province's income, but in exchange must manage the province and meet the quotas set by the Underboss. The Provincial Managers call upon or designate members of their province to meet their quotas as needed, or may directly manage members of the province, largely depending on the size of the province. As for the history of the Cartel, with the Chunko Charge eliminating the authority and power of most countries, especially the most powerful countries, El Jefe knew his opportunity and took it. The people immediately rebuked the government and fled to the Cartels for help, with the government losing all power and the Cartel Del Jefe Jalisco already being the largest cartel, he officially took control of all of Mexico in 2037, only having major resistance against government loyalists and the stronger cartels. As payback against the foreign influences, El Jefe closed the borders and slaughtered foreign influencers, then began a crusade down through Central America and the Caribbean, claiming the entire region in 2044, having the most trouble with Cuba. Once Cuba was dealt with El Jefe's forces were no longer rag tag militias with high grade equipment, but contained valuable seasoned veterans. After working on stabilizing the nation and a large purge in 2046, by 2050 El Jefe was ready for more power. 2051 marked the start of El Jefe's conquest into South America, taking ample advantage of indigenous groups by promising them large and fair reserves El Jefe quickly and easily pushed the Republic de Reyes out of the Northern tip of South America, even pushing Greater Argentina back and taking most of the Brazilian coast for trade routes and the remaining cities. By the end of 2059 El Jefe had made his territorial gains into South America concrete, unable to efficiently push any further due to the indigenous peoples being killed by disease and vices spread from his soldiers, thus stopping the Cartel's movements through the mountains and deep jungles, the remaining chokepoints were easily held by the Republic de Reyes and Greater Argentina. Seeing as there wasn't anything more to do in South America El Jefe began expanding his trade empire, eventually "buying back" Mexican land from the North American Federation in 2066.
