Which conclusion about women would be wrong from showing the nation in female form?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Women had received equal rights in real politics
Representing the nation as a woman is an allegorical and symbolic device; it does not describe the actual legal or political status of women. Marianne and Germania personified national ideas, but women could still be excluded from voting and public power. Therefore option A is the wrong conclusion. Options B, C and D correctly describe the symbolic and communicative function of such images.
