The suffragettes were members of women's organizations in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily in the United Kingdom, who campaigned vigorously for women's right to vote. They employed militant tactics, including protests, demonstrations, and civil disobedience, to draw attention to their cause. Prominent figures included Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughters, who founded the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU). Their efforts ultimately contributed to women gaining the right to vote in various countries.
