Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to create a major world power, where the dominant culture is largely egalitarian in terms of gender, perhaps to the point that men and women are socialized in the same sort of way. Of course, the latter in particular would require you to believe in the "nurture over nature" view of gender -- but, let's leave politics out of it.

Could even be after 1900 if you want.
