Although some states had enacted statewide prohibition, National Prohibition existed between January of 1920 and December of 1933. The many problems it created led to Repeal in the latter year. Some states continued statewide prohibition until the mid-1960s, when Mississippi passed local option that permitted individual counties to decide for themselves whether or not to maintain prohibition within their own boundaries.
