Britain has a long and storied history of organized crime, dating back to the early days of smuggling and piracy. In the 18th century, British criminals were involved in everything from the slave trade to the smuggling of contraband goods. In the 19th century, organized crime gangs began to take control of major cities, and by the early 20th century, they were firmly entrenched in British society.
