In 1971, the Twenty-sixth Amendment set the legal voting age at 18 for both US federal and state elections.
The age when someone can vote is usually used to determine when a person is considered an adult. Bangladesh allows children as young as 12 to work. Austria allows 16 year olds to vote in municipal elections. In Germany, 16-year olds can vote in municipal elections and drink alcohol.
