Chartism was a political movement that emerged in England in the mid-19th century, advocating for political reform and expanding the right to vote beyond wealthy property owners to include the working class. It was focused on six key points, including universal suffrage, secret ballots, equal election districts, payment for Members of Parliament, annual parliamentary sessions, and the abolition of property qualifications. The movement gained significant support but ultimately failed to achieve its goals in its short lifespan.
