On March 19, 1911, more than a million women gathered in Austria, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland and other countries to celebrate International Women's Day; On the last Sunday of February in 1913, Russian women celebrated their International Women's Day by holding demonstrations against World War I; On March 8, 1914, women in many European countries held anti-war demonstrations; On March 8, 1917 (February 23 in the Russian calendar), Russian women went on strike to commemorate the nearly 2 million Russian women who died in World War I, marking the beginning of the "February Revolution." Four days later, the Tsar was forced to abdicate and the provisional government announced that women would be granted the right to vote. It can be said that it was this series of feminist movements that took place in Europe and America in the early 20th century that jointly led to the birth of International Women’s Day on March 8, rather than the assumption that International Women’s Day is just a legacy of the international communist movement.
