The Medellin Cartel began as a small-time drug operation in the late 1970s, when a group of Colombian drug traffickers, including Pablo Escobar, recognized the potential of cocaine as a highly profitable drug. At the time, cocaine was a relatively new drug on the global market, but its popularity was growing rapidly. The cartel established a network of laboratories and transportation routes to smuggle cocaine into the United States and other countries, becoming one of the world's largest cocaine exporters.
As the cartel's operations grew, so did its power and influence in Colombian society. The influx of drug money transformed the country's economy and politics, with the cartel using its vast resources to fund infrastructure projects and social programs, as well as to bribe politicians and law enforcement officials. The cartel's key figures, including Pablo Escobar, became larger-than-life figures in Colombian society, with Escobar himself developing a cult-like following among some segments of the population.
