[Grammar] using the word tyranny

[swampishgreen]

Is this sentence correect?I have problems using the word tyranny.
I suppose in this manner they had remained legislatively unaccountable for all the tyranny they had put mankind under, throughout centuries of alcohol culture.

The sentence is not entirely correct. Your use of tyranny is correct.

The sentence is grammatical but could be better written.

put mankind under- this should be subjected mankind to or put mankind through. Without more context, though, the sentence doesn't mean much to me.

It's a part of a short story I am writing.Regarding your demand for more context; the following is a paragraph of it:

How I hated those terrorist-German-beer-brewers who were planting all those bombs in the mind of their most earnest of customers; for them to explode only as an aftermath…the day after. I suppose in this manner they had remained legislatively unaccountable for all the tyranny they had put mankind through, throughout centuries of alcohol culture.

Thanks in advance.

PS:I have already made the change you advised me to.Hence I think I owe you another official expression of gratitude:
Thank you!hehe
