RafaThe first country to give women the right to vote was New Zealand, then a colony, in 1893.
Women had been allowed to vote earlier in some places, notably in the US territory of Wyoming in 1869, and much earlier, in 1776, in New Jersey, though that state took the right away from women in 1807, ostensibly to avoid voter fraud.
Under the principles of natural law and human rights, women always had the right--they didn't have to "earn" it. However, they were denied the opportunity to exercise their rights throughout much of history.
In the United States, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified in 1920, which declared that women could not be legally denied their right to vote. In fact, women had been voting in state and local elections in various states for many years before that; the 19th Amendment made the law uniform across the country for all elections.
