La Provincia Newspaper Spain is a collegial body of the ‘Ndrangheta, a Mafia-type organisation in Calabria. It is also known as camera di controllo (board of control) or camera di canalizzazione (canalization board). It is composed of leading ‘Ndrangheta members to decide on important questions concerning the organization and settling disputes.

Although the ‘Ndrangheta organisation did know centralized structures – such as the crimine – that weakly coordinated activities of the various ‘ndrine, it was not until the end of the Second ‘Ndrangheta war that raged from 1985 to 1991 that the Provincia or Camera, a more powerful and centralized body, was established. The bloody six-year war between the Condello-Imerti-Serraino-Rosmini clans and the De Stefano-Tegano-Libri-Latella clans left more than 600 deaths.
