Forum:Prohibition

An off-the-cuff observation in one of the TL-191 threads at ah.com directed my attention to the fact that the Confederate states of Alabama, Georgia, and Mississippi were all "dry" states. Texas was ID as dry in Breakthroughs but is called wet in TCCH. In the US, only Iowa is specifically ID'd as dry.

We also have the stories "King of All" and "Getting Real", which deal with prohibition of drugs.

So the basic concept of prohibition (obviously not the 18th Amendment or Volstead Act or the War on Drugs, or any other similar legislation/policy in other countries that were enacted in OTL), but I'm not sure the best way of doing that.

The easiest thing might just be the generic article "Prohibition (concept)", and then describe very quickly what is usually prohibited and why, and then just do the story specific sections as usual. TR (talk) 16:59, March 1, 2013 (UTC)
