You must have seen in many countries that a woman has many husbands. But in which countries is it a rule that women can have more than one husband? Today we will tell you in which countries women have the freedom to have more than one husband.
The tradition of having more than one husband
There is a tradition of having more than one husband in some countries of the world. Here women can marry multiple husbands. This tradition exists in some areas of India as well. Jaunsar Bawar in Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh and Jaunsar in Uttarakhand are areas where people consider polygamy to be right. Actually these people call themselves descendants of the Pandavas. These people believe that just as Draupadi married the five Pandavas, they too will have to carry forward this tradition. Apart from this, women have the right to have more than one husband in Travancore located in Nilgiri and some communities in South India.

Let us tell you that women of Irigwe tribes in northern Nigeria have the right to have more than one husband. More than one husband is called co-husbands here. However, in the Irigwe community, the council voted and declared it illegal in 1968. But there are still some people who are following this practice.
Kenya
Let us tell you that in August 2013, two men in Kenya expressed their desire to marry the same woman because both of them loved that woman. With this marriage, women got the right to marry more than once. In Kenya, no legal action can be taken against people who practice polygamy.
China
Polygamy is very common in China. Even in Tibet occupied by China, women can have more than one husband. People here believe that children deserve the love of more than one father. Usually two brothers can marry the same woman. This tradition is carried forward in families who are poor and do not want to divide their property. Because of this, they keep their small farms with them and in this way, by marrying the same woman, their property keeps increasing.
South America
In some parts of South America, women can have more than one husband. This practice is followed in the Bororo community of South America. 70 percent of the people of Amazon culture believe in this tradition. Apart from this, Tupi-Kawahib also follow this tradition.
