Assemblywomen (Ancient Greek: Ἐκκλησιάζουσαι Ekklesiazousai; also translated as, Congresswomen, Women in Parliament, Women in Power, A Parliament of Women, Assembly-Women, and Women in the Assembly) is a comedy written by the Greek playwright Aristophanes in 391 BCE. The play portrays a scenario where the women of Athens assume control of the government and institute totalitarian proto-communist reforms that ban private wealth and enforce sexual equity for the old and unattractive. In addition to Aristophanes' political and social satire, Assemblywomen derives its comedy through sexual and scatological humor. The play aimed to criticize the Athenian government's expropriation of land and wealth at the time.
