Prohibition made the sale of alcohol illegal. This period, which lasted from 1920 to 1933 in the United States, aimed to reduce alcohol consumption but often had the opposite effect. Instead of decreasing alcohol use, Prohibition led to the rise of illegal speakeasies and bootlegging operations, making alcohol more accessible in underground markets.
