The average AFL wage is $230,000 per season. While appearing exorbitant â it is not a pittance either â the figure is hardly enormous when you compare it with other sports. Players in the NHL, NBA and English Premier League, for example, all enjoy greater financial riches.
In Europe the Nordic countries were pioneers in womenâs suffrage. The first European nation to give women the vote was Finland in 1906. Women in the Grand Duchy of Finland, then an autonomous part of the Russian Empire, won the right to be elected members of the eduskunta, the Finnish unicameral parliament, in 1907.
The 19th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America was ratified on August 18, 1920. This gave women who were citizens of the USA the right to vote in nat â¦ ional elections.
