People Nation
After the formation of the People Nation and Folk Nation during the 1980s, the Saints decided to remain renegades, showing no alliance to anyone. By the late 1980s to early 1990s, there were many gang members incarcerated in the prison system, and the Saints decided to join the People Nation for protection of the incarcerated members. They were brought into the People Nation by the Latin Kings as cousins, hence the addition of the Almighty in front of the name and the five point star.

Famous quotes containing the words people and/or nation:
“People sometimes tell me that they prefer barbarism to civilisation. I doubt if they have given it a long enough trial. Like the people of Alexandria, they are bored by civilisation; but all the evidence suggests that the boredom of barbarism is infinitely greater.”
—Kenneth MacKenzie Clark, Baron of Saltwood (1903–1983)
“Our flag is red, white and blue, but our nation is a rainbow—red, yellow, brown, black and white—and we’re all precious in God’s sight.”
—Jesse Jackson (b. 1941)
