There were a lot of Native American tribes, so societies had a tribal focus.
They didn't care much about wealth or capitalism. All that mattered to them was making sure they kept themselves alive.
Then the Europeans came and ruined all of that.
I'm pretty sure only 1 or maybe 2 years.
Hope this helped. Have a great day! :D

The temperance movement truly started in the 1820's when people started thinking that beer and wine brought evil spirits into the body. The movement was not originally against alcoholism, but for the <span>elimination of evil spirits. The movement spread rapidly, and in 12 years they had 1,250,000 members. The group was called </span><span>The </span>American Temperance Society, and they were against beer and wine.
The government tried to assist in the movement, and in Great Britain, they heavily taxed the pubs. Movements all over the world were put in place to regulate drinking in public bars. This meant you had to have a license and there where certain opening times.
The movement declined when the crime rate went through the rood due to mafias. The government also stopped assisting the movement because they knew the beer alcohol would still be sold, and they wanted to tax it.

One of the results of the Enlightenment was that people began to think for themselves. This resulted in many people questioning the absolute authority they were used to living under. People no longer believed that kings ruled by divine right
