Suffrage means THAT ALL ADULT MEN AND WOMEN HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE.
Initially, only men were allowed to vote. This was because the society in the earlier times were dominated by males as a figure of authority. It was believed that women were naturally inferior to men and that they are subjected under the rule of men. However, in later years, women's civil rights were recognized and they were also given the right to vote and run for electoral office.

HOPE THIS WILL HELP U !!
Yes it would have because if Virginia had rejected secession, the prospect of Lee in command of Union forces rather than Confederate forces would have presented major problems for the Confederacy. The South would have lost a major economic and political asset, the state of West Virginia would never have been created, the war would almost certainly have been shorter. Interestingly, such circumstances might cast some doubts on how determined the North would have been to end slavery permanently.
Hope this helped!!
Swahili culture is the product of the history of the coastal part of the African Great Lakes region.
By the 8th century, the Swahili people became involved in the Indian Ocean trade. As a consequence, they were influenced by the Arab, Persian, Indian and Chinese cultures.
As well as in the Swahili language, Swahili culture has a Bantu core and has also borrowed foreign influences. This Bantu expansion introduced the Bantu peoples in central, southern and southeastern Africa, regions of which they were previously absent. They gradually evolved to accommodate an increase in trade (mainly with Arab traders), population growth and even more centralized urbanization, developing what would later become known as the Swahili city-states.
As we can see Arab settlers particularly influential along the Swahili coast because they were the Bantu's major trading partner.
