Soprano family (original) (raw)

The Soprano family (originally the DiMeo family) is a fictional Italian-American crime family featured in the HBO series The Sopranos and the prequel film The Many Saints of Newark. Based in New Jersey, the family consists of an administration and six crews. They are allies of the Lupertazzi family in New York City but the two become rivals as the series progresses. The family is loosely based on the DeCavalcante crime family, a real New Jersey Mafia family.
