The 18th amendment took away alcohol. That’s why it’s called “Prohibition”. The 21st amendment gives back alcohol and makes it legal to drink at the age of 21 which is why the amendment is “Repeal of Prohibition”.

Alike: Both are about alcohol.
Different: 18th takes away alcohol. 21st gives back alcohol at the age of 21.

Answer: The 18th Amendment, prohibiting the manufacture, transportation and sale of intoxicating liquors.

Alike: The 21st Amendment to the United States Constitution was passed, repealing the 18th Amendment and ending the prohibition of alcohol in America.
