theweaselkingA question has arisen about "what conditions prevent marriage".
Specifically, under what circumstances is a marriage PROHIBITED?
The ones I've got off the top of my head are:
* One or both partners is not of legal age
* The partners are too closely related
* One or both partners are already married
* One or both partners is not legally capable of consent
In undercivilised places, we also have:
* one partner is the wrong race/religion/gender/party
Under what other circumstances is marriage *prohibited*? (and where?)
