In which year did Emmeline Pankhurst set up the Women's Franchise League?

1890 1889 1880 1899

Correct Answer:

1889

Explanation:

Emmeline Pankhurst helped start organized campaigning for women’s suffrage, and she set up the Women’s Franchise League in 1889. This group aimed to win the vote for women through constitutional means—petitions, public meetings, and lobbying Parliament—well before the later, more militant movements. The founding year 1889 is the one most historians assign to the creation of the league, which is why that option fits best. The other dates don’t align with the established founding time of the Women’s Franchise League.
