      First country in Europe = Finland (1906)

      Latest country in Europe = Liechtenstein (1984)

      Most countries have reliable information on: [https://data.ipu.org/historical-women/](https://data.ipu.org/historical-women/)

      Additional sources (because I found sources to be conflicting):

      Albania – Limited women’s suffrage was granted in 1920, and women obtained full voting rights in 1945.

      Belarus – Under Soviet administration women in Belarus were granted universal suffrage on 4 February 1919, when Belarus was a part of the USSR.

      Ex-Yugoslavia (Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia) – Women’s universal national suffrage was granted in Yugoslavia on August 11, 1945.

      Bulgaria – Bulgaria’s journey toward women’s suffrage was marked by gradual progress, with full and equal voting rights finally achieved on October 17, 1944.

      Czechia & Slovakia – Women gained universal national suffrage in Czechia and Slovakia (as part of Czechoslovakia) on February 29, 1920, when the constitution was adopted.

      Finland – Universal suffrage has been Finnish law since 1906, when Finland became the first European country to recognise women’s right to vote.

      Lithuania – The first provisional Constitution of Lithuania, adopted on November 2, 1918, included the principle of universal suffrage for women.

      Moldova – Women’s universal national suffrage in Moldova was first guaranteed in 1978 under Soviet administration.

      Norway – Women’s universal national suffrage in Norway was granted on June 11, 1913.

      Russia – Women in Russia obtained universal suffrage in 1917 under the Provisional Government.

      San Marino – Sammarinese women received the right to vote in 1960.

      Sweden – Women’s universal national suffrage in Sweden was achieved on May 24, 1919.

      Ukraine – Women gained universal national suffrage in Ukraine on November 20, 1917.

      Vatican City – The Pope gets elected by the all-male College of Cardinals.

      Switzerland is even worse in that women suffrage remained not universal at local level until 1991.

      Should also add when these women were actually allowed to use that suffrage to vote in free elections. For example italian women voted in one, an administration election, barely some months after the suffrage, while it toke romanian women 50 years to do so.

      Is there a comparison of when a country became republic and the suffrage? Probably it’s overlapping for most countries. Any exceptions?

      How could Moldova be 1976 if it was part of the USSR?

    13. Droid202020202020 on

      No way Moldova 1978. They were part of USSR since 1940s and subject to Soviet law.

      This makes me question whether the entire map is just AI hallucinations.

      In 1905 a small Georgian region called Guria broke away from the Russian Empire for 3 months and the first thing they did is to give women the right to vote

      This is an interesting map. You could plot a lot of “tolerance” and “liberty” things on the map and they’d look the opposite. But eastern Europe was ahead of the curve here!

      Edit: Finland naturally driving the progress for the whole continent.

      Sweden is actually two years later in 1921.
      1919 was for everyone who had completed military service, not declared bankrupt, taken into care by the poor relief service or under penal sanction. Women did not do military service and thus didn’t gain suffrage until 1921.
      However regular men still didn’t get the same universal suffrage until 1924.

      It would be interesting to see the game from universal sufferage for men vs women. UK was only 10 years.

    21. Tiligul on

      For Moldova that date is completely random. Women were already voting and being voted much earlier.

    22. Economy_Solution6371 on

      In Portugal’s defense men couldn’t vote either from 1926 until 1976.

    23. NCD_Lardum_AS on

      I find the inclusion of a “no voting” legend exclusively for the Vatican funny.

      Despite our socialist party having universal suffrage in their programme in the late 1800s. They were a huge roadblock to it later on, as they freaked woman would bote en masse for the Catholic party. Now they were correct, but that doesn’t make it right.

      Our Liberal party on the other had has a proud history of expanding suffrage despite it hurting them in the elections after. First they expanded it to the poor, despite most of their voters being richer. And a second time fighting for woman’s suffrage despite it leading to the Catholic party dominating our politics for the next 50 years.

      Poland is simply the day of our indepencence.

      Even before that there was never any specific laws that forbid women to vote in Poland, women were allowed to vote by default when elections were allowed to begin with.

      every election in polish history allowed women to vote. if the question asked when men could vote, it would be the exact same date.
