From 1920 to 1933 there was a Prohibition law in the United States which banned the sale, production, importation, and exportation of Alchohol. Many gangsters sold Alcohol during this time and Al Capone was one of the most infamous. This was a very lucrative industry at the time with mobsters being able to make millions.The most powerful gangsters were fighting over territory to sell their alchohol and stealing each others illegal shipments. This created lots of violence and murder as the gangsters were in war, killing each other for more power over this beer business. At one point Capone had to buy a bulletproof car, to protect himself because he was a huge target from many other gangsters. Many innocent people were killed in the process as gangsters were shooting at each other and trying to kill off their competition.
