Women in early 20th-century England demand the right to vote, but their government refuses to allow it is the scenario that describes an example of continuity over time.
All important changes in a society are not obtained from one day to the other. Depending on the issue, some things are harder to get. True changes that impact the life of a nation are obtained to struggle and persistence. In the effort, even some people die or get hurt. That is what “continuity over time” refers to. What one generation begins, often times it is a reality for the next generation. Transformation is a slow process. That is why “important changes” happens over time.
