During the prohibition era, what was sold at "speakeasies"?


                            

                            
                        

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            
                        
                        
                        
                        

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                        
                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
At speakeasies during Prohibition, illegal alcoholic drinks like bathtub gin, moonshine, and bootlegged whiskey were sold, often disguised in cocktails with mixers like Coke, fruit juice, and mint, alongside simple foods like canapés and pretzels to soak up the alcohol and encourage longer stays.

Although Woodrow Wilson was its chief architect, of what international organization did the United States not become a member?


                            

                            
                        

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            
                        
                        
                        
                        

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                        
                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
The United States, despite President Woodrow Wilson's strong advocacy as its chief architect, never joined the League of Nations, the international body formed after World War I to prevent future conflicts, primarily due to U.S. Senate opposition rooted in isolationist sentiments and concerns over sovereignty.

What was known as "the gun that won the West"?


                            

                            
                        

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            
                        
                        
                        
                        

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                        
                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
"The Gun That Won the West" refers primarily to the Winchester Model 1873 rifle, famous for its reliability, affordability, and use by settlers, lawmen, and outlaws, making it a symbol of westward expansion, though the Colt Single Action Army (Peacemaker) revolver is also often given the title for its iconic status and military adoption, with the catchy phrase itself emerging from 20th-century advertising.

What Mojave Desert city has a name meaning "the meadows" in Spanish?


                            

                            
                        

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            
                        
                        
                        
                        

                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                        
                    

                        
                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
The Mojave Desert city with a name meaning "the meadows" in Spanish is Las Vegas, named by Spanish explorers who found lush, spring-fed grasslands (vegas) in the arid desert basin, a name derived from the Spanish word for meadows or fertile plains.

How many U.S. states are needed to ratify an amendment for it to become part of the constitution?


                            

                            
                        

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            

            

                

                

                

            
                        
                        
                        
                        

                            
                            
                            
                            
                        

                        
                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
                        

                        

                            
For a U.S. Constitutional amendment to be added, it must be ratified by three-fourths (38 out of 50) of the states, either through their state legislatures or state ratifying conventions, after being proposed by a two-thirds vote in Congress or a national convention.
