Women's suffrage<span> groups had existed since the 1870s, but during the war it was hard to ignore their arguments. Women were serving in the war, taking over from the men in factories and offices, holding families together while the men were overseas, and working in voluntary organizations that supported the war effort. They couldn't be kept out of political life any longer.</span><span>

Women got the federal vote in three stages: the Military Voters Act of 1917 allowed nurses and women in the armed services to vote; the Wartime Election Act extended the vote to women who had husbands, sons or fathers serving overseas; and all women over 21 were allowed to vote as of January 1, 1919. 

Hope this helped :P</span>

It is a social experiment and is the first country to establish a government based on self rule and the rights of man. In the Age of Enlightenment in the 18th century a government of the people, by the people, and for the people was a novel idea that was borne out of the idea that the right of man come from a higher power and not from being given to them by another person.

Ii was assumed that it would fail, that people did not have the ability to govern themselves without someone to oversee and have the last word.

polet [3.4K]

Answer;

D. the United States suffering no war damage and having a strong economy

Explanation;

-The industrial revolution really caught the US up in the global scheme of things, but it was WWII that put the US (and the Soviet Union) in the forefront as leaders of the world.

-After the war,the US economy was really boosted, while Europe's was practically in shambles. Also, because the US helped Europe significantly in both world wars, it received kind of a morale/self-esteem boost of sorts. Moreover, because the country wasn't physically involved in the war, it didn't have to deal with repairing its land.
