Well, isn't there a main-wife? And I guess that f.ex. the emperor of Byzantia wouldn't like it if his daughter is only the third wife of Sultan of Bagdad...

It's really an interessting question...

Since i am a muslim let me tell you why arabs married 4 womens.
During the fights between muslims and ( arabs who didnt like muslims ) many muslim mans died and left their children and women without a husband to protect them and since muslims were oprecced like christians during roman era. To bring them into security all of the muslims were allowed to marry up to 4 i think women.

It was not for plessure like all of you think

It's good to be king. rofl.. j/k

poligamy is horrid. I do not think they'll let you marry more than one lady unless she dies... or maybe is ex-communicated. "Wife not putting out? have the cardinal excommunicate her!" (sorry, bad joke... but it did happen! look at Henry II and Eleanor, he threw her in jail and bedded the future wife of his son! gah!)

back then... the "marriages" were more political agreements.
example{
King of France: "Oui Oui, I will take your daughter as my wife, and you can take my daughter as your wife. I have Germany's daughter from march through august, so yours will have to be September through december. Deal?"

King of England: "Bah, fine. But I will take your wife from Germany from September through December then."

King of France: "Okay fine, but send me ten horses to sweeten the deal."

King of England: "you will get 5 and that's all."

King of France: "My German wife is only worth 5 horses to you then?"

King of England: "Yeah, okay. She is pretty nice on the eyes. Okay, 8 horses and that is final."

*the two shake hands*

lol.. pretty messed up eh?

turylon the topic is a bit different from what youve written
but i suppose you finally decided to test this mj thing ;)

nonetheless
a german frau is worth less than 5 horses (in 99% of the cases)

blablabla...
oh yes @Hector
the sultans sheikhs shahs padishahs etc...
had something called HAREM there lived 4x10^4 women :)
this was of course not for pleasure they just conforted
all lonely widows in the kingdom ...

my opinion is that there should be more women for islamic rulers
but not an infinite number lets say 10 max 15
and the bonusses aquired through marriage should be much lesser

yes it became a custom later on the Harem was only for the sultan himself, where he had collections from all over the world :silly:.

Harem was Turkish so i dont see the point with arabs

rofl @ that flash.

that is pretty much a whole session of CounterStrike. lol.


back on topic.


@4zzy
yeah, it was a silly little "story comment." heh.

I don't think it is possible for them to implement 10-15 "wives" for Arabic kings. It would take a rather big change in the "graphics" and "diplomacy" as well as "coding" sections of the game to do so.
