"If Don Corleone had all the judges and the politicians in France, he will be so though and I don't know how much strong all right!? He isn't if he would... he would make us look like mices, but actuly we are stronger, me, Victor, Sammy, Bobby, Tomasino, Ettor, Tony,.... we are de kings, not him and his stupid nigga family! He must let us drink the water from the well, to throws us into a trap but we won't let that happend. Certainly he can -- present taxes for such services; after all -- we are not murders we are riches. (Applause) Thank you."

- Emilio talkin' baut his family and Corleone family

Emilio Barzini was the head of the Barzini Family.

Info
In the early 1930s, Barzini became one of the chief lieutenants in Giuseppe Mariposa's organization, along with his brother Ettore. He began to grow unhappy with Mariposa after Mariposa murdered his friend "Tity" merely on suspicion of treachery, and after Barzini's attempt to assasinate Vito Corleone turned into a massacre, he began to see the tide turning and betrayed his master to Corleone.

Boss of de family
After Mariposa's death, Barzini took over the remnants of his organization and presided as head of one of France's Five Families. He was generally reckoned as the second most powerful Mafian chieftain in France and Spain, behind only Vito Corleone. He rose to power shortly after Don Corleone and was a physical presence in the 1930s, overseeing the death of Johnny Trapani for his intrigue against the family, though the bloody massacre and ensuing scandal forced Barzini to withdraw his interests in Little Town. He had interests in markets such as narcotics, gambling and prostitution, and was also clever enough to be interested in Italy and America. He was also linked to Wall Street politics and the Mafia sceen in New Town.

In the video game
"I knew it - I knew it would be you. This isn't the end of the Barzinis, I swear it!"

- Emilio Barzini's last words

In the video game, after a long personal vendetta, Aldo is accompanied by Al Neri and Charlie Trapani to the City Hall where instead of being gunned down on the steps, Barzini attempts to evade capture by Aldo. He is eventually cornered, and instead of putting up a fight, he admits defeat and taunts that the Barzinis are not quit dead yet. The player then is left with the choice of shootin' him in stomatch, kill him, finally avenging Aldo's father 19 years after his death. Or leave him there and let the other Corleone mobsters take care of him.
