    • Correct Nation: United States
      (Women gained the right to vote with the 19th Amendment in 1920.)
  2. representative democracy

    • Correct Nation: Roman Republic and United States
      (Both the Roman Republic and the United States have a form of representative democracy where elected officials represent the citizens.)
  3. government structured by a constitution

    • Correct Nation: United States
      (The United States government is structured by the Constitution. The Roman Republic did not have a single written constitution.)
  4. part of government like an oligarchy

    • Correct Nation: Roman Republic
      (The Roman Republic had elements of an oligarchy, especially in the governance by the Senate, which consisted of a select group of elites.)

So the corrected associations are:

  • representative democracy - Roman Republic and United States
  • government structured by a constitution - United States
