Chartists were people who supported the 1838 'People's Charter'.
The Charter called for Universal Male Suffrage, Parliamentary voting by Secret Ballot, Salaried Members of Parliament (so that a political career was open to men with no private income) - and a host of other ideas, most of which we now take for granted.
The political reforms of the later Nineteenth Century nearly all originated in Chartism.
The chartists fell apart as they all had tried absolutely everything and nothing had worked for them hope this helped :)
They wanted to join it as many people were working class and they wanted the vote and one way to do that was to join the chartists
The Chartists were less successful than the suffragettes largely due to their broader and more complex demands for political reform, which included universal male suffrage, while the suffragettes focused specifically on women's voting rights. The Chartist movement faced significant opposition from the government and was often met with violent repression, which hindered their progress. Additionally, the suffragettes effectively utilized media and public campaigns to garner widespread support, while the Chartists struggled to achieve the same level of public engagement. Ultimately, the suffragette movement gained momentum and achieved significant milestones in women's rights, while the Chartists failed to realize their goals within their timeframe.
well i am not sure if they have much in common i know that they were both protest groups in the 20th century and both tried to gain a certain right, but other than that there is not many.. although there are many differences present such as suffragists are non violent protestors and chartists are violent, the suffragists were aiming to gain women the vote and chartists were trying to gain rights for poor people(i think), suffragists were led by women and charitists (i think) were men(or mainly men) leading them. etc i hope this helped
Not really they only achieve one of the 6 demands (and that was in 10 years!), they were: 1. A vote for every man 21 years of age, of sound mind, and not undergoing punishment for crime. 2. Secret ballots. 3. No property qualification for Members of Parliament. 4. Payment of MPs. 5. Equal size constituencies. 6. Annual parliaments.
The protest movement can be split into two distinct groups, the Moral Force chartists and the Physical Force chartists. These groups attempted to force reform in distinctively different ways. The Moral Force chartists intended peaceful protest, the Physical force chartists, as the name suggests, intended to force change through use of physical force and violence. Moral Force chartists- protested peacefully Physical Force chartists- protested violently
the chartists NEVER use violence to achieve their aims.

Those who pushed Parliament to accept the People's Charter
some people would consider them revolutionaries depending on how the define a revoultion, chartists did want change but they didn't want absolute change which in some peoples opinions mean they don't count as revolutionaries
They were called Chartists.
