Female Heads of State Quiz Part 1

274 Views 16 Votes 16 Comments

I have always been fascinated with female world leaders. What has often bewildered me is that these leaders are not found in North America but in other continents. The exception is  Canada  with one   very short lived female Prime Minister. Some countries in Asia, South America, Africa, the Caribbean and Europe have elected female prime Ministers, Presidents or Chancellors. In this quiz I have selected just a few of the past and present female heads of state. See if you can identify the correct one. Have fun.
