The New Regime
The Godfather Part III explains that, by 1980, the Tattaglia Family had gone bankrupt and become property of consigliere Osvaldo Altobello, who became a strong ally to the Corleone Family.
In 1980, Altobello betrays Michael Corleone to Don Licio Lucchesi and the corrupt members of the Vatican Bank. As retribution, Michael's nephew and successor, Vincent Corleone, orders both Lucchesi and Altobello killed, thus destroying the last remnants of the Tattaglia Family once and for all.

Famous quotes containing the words the new and/or regime:
“And yet we constantly reclaim some part of that primal spontaneity through the youngest among us, not only through their sorrow and anger but simply through everyday discoveries, life unwrapped. To see a child touch the piano keys for the first time, to watch a small body slice through the surface of the water in a clean dive, is to experience the shock, not of the new, but of the familiar revisited as though it were strange and wonderful.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do. It is the freedom to refrain, withdraw and abstain which makes a totalitarian regime impossible.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
