Answer:

Women in England for example began to work in factories because of the shortage of men who were off fighting, They learned to organize in unions for their labor rights and it also strengthened the suffragette movement and women getting the right to vote.

Explanation:

The biggest changes that were brought about by WWI on the home front were that women took up work in the factories and took up other jobs that were left vacant as the men were called off to war. Between 1914 and 1918, it is estimated that two million women took up jobs in place of men. In England there were companies which began to  make munitions for the war effort and they were eventually forced to employ women because of the lack of men. These women were called "munitionettes," but unfortunately the work also involved exposure to dangerous chemicals and other toxic substances. These conditions led the women to unionize and in England women moving into public life and work realms is linked to winning the right to vote in 1918. David Lloyd George was elected Prime Minister in 1916 and he was more liberal toward women than the former Prime Minister Asquith. This led to the Representation of the People Act being adopted in 1918. Finally, women over the age of 30 who owned property had the right to vote in England.

The Boxer Rebellion should be the answer. The boxer rebellion was the rebellion that was an anti-colonialism/colonist/Christian uprising that took place near the end of the Qing Dynasty, so I assumed that it must be the answer as it is the closest and the Taiping rebellion occurred in the 1850s.
