Was Prohibition a thing in Europe?
Did Weimar Germany prohibit the sale of alcohol?

The Scandinavian cunts tried it, yes.

Apparently even Lenin tried it as he saw psychoactive drugs as an affront to his interpretation of Marxism, but Stalin reestablished the Tsar's vodka factories real fast because he knew the realpolitik of giving all strata of society the right to get fucked up after their unfulfilling day of toil

Why didn't they import weed from Cuba?
North Korean commies always had legal cannabis

North Korean commies are an exception with regards to drug policy, they're the only nation on earth with normalized meth culture and the world's biggest superlabs are all there, not in Mexico, China, or Appalachia

In Scandinavia and Russia it was attempted, yes. Iceland retained its ban on Beer until the 1980s and in Sweden today you still need to be 20 years old to buy alcohol from the official state owned liquor stores which are expensive as hell.
Weimar Germany never did this, I don't think the idea was even entertained at any point.

Not in England, though there was a temperance movement. There's one surviving temperance bar in Manchester, Mr Fitzpatrick's, serving drinks such as ginger beer, cream soda, sarsaparilla and dandelion & burdock

Why the fuck would anyone deal with that when Mexico's land border is a stone's throw away? God I miss Mexican brick weed. Can't find that shit anymore.
