Her Rule

In examining matriarchal societies, it is essential to define what constitutes a matriarchy. A matriarchy is typically characterised by a social system in which women hold primary power, dominating in roles of political leadership, moral authority, social privilege, and control of property. Unlike patriarchal systems, where men often hold the majority of power and authority, matriarchal societies present a different dynamic in governance and familial structures, promoting a more egalitarian approach to leadership and decision-making within communities.
