The Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1919, established the prohibition of alcohol, making it illegal to manufacture, sell, or transport intoxicating liquors. Its intent was to address social issues related to alcohol consumption, such as crime and family problems. However, the amendment ultimately led to widespread illegal activities and was repealed by the Twenty-First Amendment in 1933, reflecting the challenges of enforcing such a ban and the societal demand for regulated alcohol consumption.
