OK. Civil rights.
Have two countries that grant full legal equality to both men and women ever gone to war?
- nzmsv 16y agoWikipedia: women could vote in the USA since 1920, and in the USSR since 1917. Though the Cold War was more of a series of proxy wars and an arms race. But the argument in the grandparent post is not supported by history either. The military monk orders of the Crusades are just one example.
- yters 16y agoThe crusades were a defensive battle in response to Islam militantly taking over previously Christianized Africa and eastern Europe.
