In 1919 and 1920 a piece of legislature was passed with the 18th amendment its known as the Prohibition act. Prohibition was heavily supported by women’s right and children’s activists. Claiming that it would help decrease alcoholic abuse, among families. The amendment was short lived but it prohibited the creation, distribution and transportation of alcohols in the United States and several other large countries in the world.
On paper it was a good idea, but it was never enforced heavily. Until it open the way for criminal underground empires and disasters that would lead to the law being repealed in 1933.
Known simply as "Prohibition" it was a law that was passed by many countries but almost all of them repealed it, Including Britain, America, and Canada
