The history of this day dates back to the beginning of the 1908th century, when women began to stand up and demand their rights.

Subsequently, on March 1917, 8, workers' demonstrations took place in Petrograd (today Saint Petersburg), which the Bolsheviks designated as the first day of the Russian revolution. This is where a new tradition is established: March 1945 will therefore be an opportunity for the communist parties to mobilize women. After XNUMX, Women's Day was officially celebrated!
