Its not the first female majority parliament in the world, its the first female majority parliament in europe.

Right now, there are five countries where there is a female majority: Rwanda(61%), Cuba(53%), Nicaragua(51%), Mexico(50%) and United Arabian Emirates(50%).




Cuba is an undemocratic authoritarian one-party state where elections are not free and no opposition is permitted - but hey, they have women in parliament so let's celebrate them?
