Liquor licensing for restaurants is a think in many places in the world. So are building codes.

There might be some very good reasons for not allowing restaurants to arbitrarily setup chairs on raised platforms with no railings above concrete and then serve liquor up there.

This is a TBI waiting to happen.

Liquor Liscence is common. Policing where people are allowed to drink what they bought is pretty uncommon.

Is it though? I went through the whole wiki page and it tell me otherwise, though some country have nationwide ban, some have state ban, some have municipal/city ban, and most commonly are area ban.
