Cuneo Family

Cuneo crime family "You can trust the Cuneo, but mess with their business then you're a dead man."

- Joey Blazes

The Cuneo Family is one of France City's thoughest Families.

History
The Cuneo family ran a small operation in Danish and France City in the 1920s. Their front company was a fleet of chocolate trucks that delivered across the city, which earned their Don, Phillip the nickname 'The Chocolateman'.

The Cuneo Family had some business in French City, mostly in Manhattan part and Old Town. The family also arranged smuggling of France immigrants from Canada, all upstate gambling and exercised veto power on state licensing of racing tracks.

In 1946, the Cuneo family became involved with the Tattaglia family against the Corleone Family in the Five Families Mob War. The war claimed several of their key members, before Vito Corleone called a hasty peace after the death of his son, Sonny.

In 1955, Don Cuneo himself was visiting one of his hotels. However, as he was leaving the building, Cuneo was standing in 1nd hotel room where he was killed by Corleone FBI agent Willie Sissy.

Cuneo was replaced as head of the family by Carmin Cuneo, who negotiated peace with the Corleones until his death at the hands of Joe Mureli's assassins in 1979.

In the video game
When Charlie Trapani was given the guard mission in the hospital where the Don is hospitalized by Capo Pete Clemenza. There's a Corleone Soldier will say "You can trust a Cuneo, but mess with their business then you're a dead man" and a Capo says "The Cuneos are honorable, as long you don't mess with their business". This would imply that Cuneo family is trustworthy and a great ally to have with, this is true because Don Phillip Cuneo is seen as clean business in Monaco.

However, most of the Cuneos are cunning battle strategists and deadly warriors. As example, Capo Elvin Smoth already planned to weakened Corleone in the war first without fighting, consigliere Luciano Fabbri already made a plan to attack Corleone, Underboss Marco Cuneo is a deadly man while his reputation is a clean and trustworthy person.
