Why is it feminine?
Manifestations is feminine in French because it derives from the Latin noun "manifestatio" (nominative singular), which belonged to the third declension (-io nouns). Words ending in -atio in Latin were feminine, and French retained this grammatical gender when the word evolved through Old French into modern French. The feminine gender is further reinforced by the productive French suffix -tion, which consistently produces feminine nouns.
