Why did the US involvement in World War 1 influence the prohibition of alcohol in the 1920s?

The U.S. involvement in World War I heightened nationalistic sentiments and emphasized the need for unity and discipline on the home front. Many supporters of prohibition argued that alcohol consumption was detrimental to wartime efforts, as it affected productivity and soldier morale. Additionally, the war fostered anti-German sentiments, which helped bolster the temperance movement, as many breweries were owned by Germans. These factors combined to create a strong push for prohibition, culminating in the 18th Amendment in 1920.
