Beating the U.S. by 27 years in the battle for suffrage, which country was the first to give women the right to vote?
Answer New Zealand
The first self-governing country to give women the vote was New Zealand in 1893. Some colonies or territories across the world granted women the right prior to this, although these exceptions often had caveats (requiring literacy or land ownership, etc.).
