History of Women's Day
From times immemorial, ordinary women from different parts of the world have struggled to acquire an equal position in society with men. There have been famous struggles in New York, Copenhagen, Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland for rights such as better pay, voting rights, shorter working hours, etc.
However, formally women's day came into being in Russia when on a Sunday on the eve of World War I, in 1917, Russian women observed a strike for bread and peace. The strike was a great victory in the history of women's struggle as the administration granted women the right to vote. That historic Sunday fell on 8th March according to Gregorian calendar.
