Women's Suffrage

The earliest forms of democracy go back over 2000 years to Ancient Greece. While this early system did have voting, not everyone could vote.

In fact, most people couldn’t vote.

Voting was limited to free men and then only property-holding men.

The expansion of voting rights to women took centuries, but by the 19th century, a movement was taking place in many countries that eventually led to the widespread extension of the franchise to women in the 20th.
