The rise of the women's suffrage movement globally marked significant social and political changes, including the fight for women's rights and equality. Throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, women advocated for the right to vote, challenging societal norms and demanding representation. This movement fostered increased participation of women in various aspects of public life and inspired broader discussions on gender equality. Countries gradually began to grant women the right to vote, reshaping political landscapes. The momentum from this movement also laid the groundwork for future feminist initiatives and broader civil rights efforts.
