The 18th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1919, established prohibition by making the manufacture, sale, and transportation of Alcoholic Beverages illegal. This amendment aimed to reduce crime and corruption, improve health, and enhance social order. However, it led to unintended consequences, including the rise of organized crime and widespread disregard for the law, ultimately resulting in its repeal by the 21st Amendment in 1933.
