Länder, die seit der Gründung der Vereinten Nationen von Frauen geführt werden

In France, we usually see the leader to be the president, not the prime minister. There has been no female french president yet.

Switzerland is kind of interesting, given they don’t have a single leader, but rather a council of 7 people who function as the executive power in the country.

So you’d have to divide by 7 to normalize the data with the rest of the world.

Ireland shouldn’t really count. We’ve had 2 female presidents but the president doesn’t lead the country, the Taoiseach does and every Taoiseach has been a man unfortunately.

This is counting both heads of state and heads of government

I wouldn’t count Canada, not only was she not elected but she served for less than 6 months.

In France the head of state is the president, so I’d say this map is wrong, since we’ve only had female Prime Ministers

I’d rather see it based on years of leadership rather than number of women. What if they just had one year terms or pulled a liz truss

Sri Lanka has had three female prime ministers (including the very first one and the current incumbent ), this is not reflected here.

Probably best to define what is meant by “female led” particularly for countries that may have both a President and Prime Minister. India for example shows three (presumably counting ceremonial Presidents) but has only actually had one female head of government (Prime Minister Indira Gandhi)

we *barely* count for this in canada, kim campbell became prime minister when brain mulroney stepped down because he was doing really badly politically (and she was chosen in an internal election in the progressive conservative party where she beat jean charest), many people think this is a „glass cliff“ situation where she was basically chosen because it would look like the party was failing because of her and not because of what she was handed, and 4 months later jean chrétien of the liberal party won the federal election, and the pc party which she was still leader of only won *2* seats total, and jean charest took leadership of the party 2 months after the federal election

i would love to see canada really choose a woman some day

I was so confused as to why the UK was labelled as having 3 when it was excluding monarchs, but then remembered that Liz Truss existed, honestly forgot she was even a person let alone PM.

Kim Campbell doesn’t count.

Two women led France since UN created? What is their name?

‚Excludes monarchs or **those appointed by them**‘; I was under the impression that the UK PM is appointed by the monarch?

🤕

Switzerland is cheating because it has like nine leaders at any given time
