    I wouldn't have thought so but apparently they did.

    1900 to 1948 in Prince Edward Island, and for shorter periods in other locations in Canada
    1914 to 1925 in Russia and the Soviet Union
    1915 to 1922 in Iceland (though beer was still prohibited until 1989)
    1916 to 1927 in Norway (fortified wine and beer also prohibited from 1917 to 1923)
    1919 in Hungary (in the Hungarian Soviet Republic, March 21 to August 1; called szesztilalom)
    1919 to 1932 in Finland (called kieltolaki)
