When did women get the right to vote?

New Zealand became the first self-governing country to grant women the vote in national elections in September 1893. Australia followed for federal elections in 1902, and Finland in 1906 became the first European country to give women full voting rights and the right to stand for parliament. In the UK, the Representation of the People Act 1918 gave the vote to women over 30 who met property rules, and equal voting rights at 21 came in 1928. In the United States, the 19th Amendment was ratified on 18 August 1920 after decades of campaigning by suffragists such as Susan B. Anthony. Saudi Arabia allowed women to vote in municipal elections for the first time in 2015.
