The prohibition movement primarily crusaded in the United States, aiming to ban the sale, production, and consumption of alcoholic beverages. It gained momentum in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, driven by various social reform groups, including the Women's Christian Temperance Union and the Anti-Saloon League. This movement culminated in the passage of the 18th Amendment in 1919, which enacted nationwide prohibition, though it was later repealed in 1933 with the 21st Amendment.
