Prohibition is the era in American history when the sale, disruption, and manufacturing of alcohol was illegal. Since selling alcohol was illegal, anyone that wanted to get alcohol was now breaking the law. However whenever there is a good/resource people want, even if it is illegal, they will pay a significant amount of money for it.

When this is the case, people will risk almost anything to make a huge profit. This is why crime and violence increase during Prohibition. Organized crime rings, lead by people like Al Capone, start to form. Due to the high demand of alcohol by American citizens, there became a huge competition between different organized crime groups for customers. Rival gangs would end up in shootouts (like the Valentine's Day Massacre).

What was the Renaissance?
Alenkinab [10]

The Renaissance is a cultural-historical term that first characterized the period from 1350 to the 16th century as a period in which there was a renewed interest in classical antiquity and the flourishing of art, and then this term denotes the cultural state of the transition period from the Middle Ages to the new era, especially in Italy.

Explanation:

  • The Renaissance marks the period when art, culture and intellectual endeavors turned to classical art and the teachings of Greece and Rome.
  • The revived past, in which Renaissance artists and scholars found inspiration to develop and explore new ideas and practices, influenced all arts and sciences. This new approach became known as humanism because it encouraged people to achieve something for themselves rather than simply accepting what they were taught as truth.
  • The Renaissance occurred in Italy in the fourteenth century, culminating in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, when it spread throughout western and northern Europe.
  • The term is also used for cultural renewal in England during the 8th century, the Frankish state during the 9th century and in Europe during the 12th century. The name "Renaissance" comes from the French word Renaissance, which means "rebirth, renewal".
