Cannabis, also known as marijuana, has been a widely used plant for thousands of years, with roots dating back to ancient civilizations in The Middle East, with a rich history of medicinal and recreational properties that have been highly regarded, making it a valuable resource for various cultures. However, in the early 1900s, a shift in attitudes led to the prohibition of cannabis, a restriction that has been gradually reversed in many parts of the world.

The campaign gained momentum, and in 1914, the Federal Narcotics Act was passed in the United States, making it a federal crime to possess, grow, or sell cannabis. The subsequent Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 essentially prohibited the distribution of cannabis.

The consequences of cannabis prohibition were far-reaching. In the United States, hundreds of thousands were prosecuted for cannabis-related offenses. The restriction also led to a decline in medical research.

However, in recent years, attitudes towards cannabis have begun to shift once again. In 2012, Colorado and Washington became the first two states. Since then, over countless jurisdictions worldwide.

The movement towards cannabis legalization has been driven by a growing body of evidence. Cannabinoids, the active compounds in cannabis, have been shown to alleviate a number of health issues.
