Their power increased incredibly after recruiting Jane and Alec two vampire twins with extremely powerful gifts, and subsequently made the coven untouchable. After the Romanians were defeated in the century-long war, their next target was the Egyptians, with only two survivors from the demise, Amun and Kebi. When the coven became strong enough, the Volturi usurped control of the vampire world from the Romanian coven, the original ruling coven, and presented the laws of prohibiting vampires from being noticed by humans. The coven originated in Greece and proceeded to gather vampires with useful talents to build up their power, and eventually relocated to Volterra, Italy.

Throughout the centuries, many vampires are born after the laws were established, and every vampire was taught of these laws by their creator. As long as attention isn't drawn widely so that prompts the Volturi's involvement, they may never find out.

The laws are not written down to write them would in itself be an infraction. There aren't many of these laws, and they mainly concern the secrecy surrounding the existence of vampires. Throughout the centuries, the Volturi have established and enforced a number of laws that all vampires are expected to obey on pain of death. The coven has existed for over 3000 years, and is the largest coven in existence, followed by the Olympic, the Denali, and the Mexican covens. They often send their agents to travel from Volterra to prevent overzealous covens from exposing vampires through mass eradication of every vampire (and any humans) present. The Volturi act as guardians, keeping the secret society of vampires hidden from the human world as needed. They are also considered 'nighttime patrons of the arts' as, because of their inability to sleep, they study the arts at night.
