@Deuces @rohrkrepierer The same thing happened in Sparta. Honestly, allowing women to inherit property was a mistake because while the men died in war, the widows and daughters became rich power brokers without any responsibility to the state that provided for them.
@Deuces @rohrkrepierer It wasn't one woman. Because Sparta was a warlike state, the men died fairly often and because the women could inherit property, they become richer and more powerful until they become "kingmakers" behind the scenes, affecting politics even though they couldn't vote.
They were the original "special interest group" that used campaign donations to influence politicians to do what they wanted.
