Why was the 18th amendment repealed by the 21st amendment?

Social Studies
1 answer:
olya-2409 [2.1K]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is: "It was unpopular with a majority of Americans and also difficult to enforce".

The 18th amendment to the US Constitution was issued in 1917 and declared a nationwide prohibition of intoxicating liquors, which banned both the production and sale of alcoholic beverages. Subsequently the Volstead Act was issued too, for the enforcement of this 18th amendment.

Although there was a decrease in alcohol consumption the enforcement of these regulations was extremely complicated, criminal organizations arose and started to sell alcohol in the black markets. Moreover, the public opinion started to reject the Prohibition in the 1920s decade. In 1932 President Franklin D. Roosevelt claimed for its derogation and in 1933 the 21st amendment to the US Contitution was passed to repeal the previous 18th amendment. It is the only time in the US history that one amendment is only issued to overrule a previous one.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer: There are many natural and human developed factors which affect the population distribution.

Explanation:

Natural factors:

Landforms: Plains are the most crowded places of survival of human population as they provide suitable land area for survival. The mountains and deserts are not preferred because the landforms are not suitable for survival.

Climatic conditions: Majority of people prefer to stay in areas with moderate climatic conditions.

Government policies: Those areas where government policies restrict the migration and trade of people are sparsely populated areas.

Hazard prone areas: Places where chances of oceanic tides, thunderstorms, volcanic eruptions are prominent are least occupied areas.

Main cause of population growth in urban areas are as follows:

1. Availability of food, shelter, medical, and literacy.

2. Availability of recreational areas, picnic spots, and other places.

3. Availability of occupational opportunities and chances of increase in income growth are prominent in urban areas as compared to rural areas.
