Women's Suffrage

Everything Everywhere Daily: History, Science,... ·

2024/12/13

The earliest forms of democracy go back over 2000 years to Ancient Greece. While this early system did have voting, not everyone could vote. In fact, most people couldn’t vote. Voting was limited to free men and then only property-holding men. The expansion of voting rights to women took centuries, but by the 19th century, a movement was taking place in many countries that eventually led to the widespread extension of the franchise to women in the 20th.

There was a time when this was very thinkable, and that time was far more recent than most people realize. Learn more about the planning for a US/Canadian war and how both sides made plans

Questions and Answers: Volume 25

Everything Everywhere Daily: History, Science,... ·

2024/12/01

December is upon us, and we should be cognizant of the fact that December is based on the Latin word Decem, meaning tenth, which is why December is the 10th month of the year……except that it is actually the 12th month. The reason why the 12th month is named the 10th month is because the original Roman calendar was perhaps the dumbest calendar even used in all of human history, where they had a full two months that were pretty much unaccounted for. Fast forward over 2000 years and December is just

Fermat's Last Theorem

For more than 350 years, a single problem stumped the world of mathematics. The problem was extremely simple to state, yet it proved fiendishly difficult to prove.

Finally, in 1994, seemingly out of nowhere, a proof was offered, but it was far cry from the initial promise of being simple.
