jan 1, 1840 - 1840 Temperance Movement

Description:

Temperance is abstinence from alcoholic drink. Maine was the first state to ban alcohol in 1846. Then, the 18th amendment banned alcohol in 1919. The prohibition was more succesful in rural, rather than urban areas. This is because of the rise of speakeasy's in larger cities
