Women leaders and activists...

...whom you hear little about.
Burma: Aung San Suu Kyi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aung_San_Suu_Kyi
Australia: Julia Gillard http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Gillard
Croatia: Jadranka Kosor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jadranka_Kosor


I'd like to highlight the Most Serene Republic of San Marino: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Marino
San Marino is a landlocked country within Italy about 50 miles East of Florence and 100 miles North of Rome, that became independent from the Romans in the early 4th century. Two Captains Regent head the government and one of these two leaders is often a woman.
