In cultures that practice marital monogamy, bigamy is the act of entering into a marriage with one person while still legally married to another. Bigamy is a crime in most western countries, and when it occurs in this context often neither the first nor second spouse is aware of the other. In countries that have bigamy laws, consent from a prior spouse makes no difference to the legality of the second marriage, which is usually considered void.
History of anti-bigamy laws
Before Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire, Diocletian and Maximilian passed strict anti-polygamy laws in 285AD that mandated monogamy as the only form of legal marital relationship, as had traditionally been the case in classical Greece and Rome. In 393, the Byzantine Emperor Theodosius I issued an imperial edict to extend the ban on polygamy to Jewish communities. In 1000, Rabbi Gershom ben Judah ruled polygamy inadmissible within Ashkenazi Jewish communities, living in a Christian environment.
In India, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and Eritrea polygamy is only legal for Muslims.
In South Africa and Nigeria, polygamous marriages under customary law and for Muslims are legally recognised.
In Mauritius, polygamous unions have no legal recognition. Muslim men may, however, "marry" up to four women, but they do not have the legal status ofwives.
Polygamy (from Late Greekπολυγαμία, polygamia, "state of marriage to many spouses") involves marriage with more than one spouse. When a man is married to more than one wife at a time, it is called polygyny. When a woman is married to more than one husband at a time, it is called polyandry. If a marriage includes multiple husbands and wives, it can be called a group marriage. In contrast, monogamy is marriage consisting of only two parties. Like "monogamy", the term "polygamy" is often used in a de facto sense, applied regardless of whether the relationship is recognized by the state. In sociobiology and zoology, researchers use polygamy in a broad sense to mean any form of multiple mating.

I heard you sing a rebel song, sung it loud and all alone. We can't afford the things you save, we can't afford the warranty. I see you walking in the glare down the county road we share. Our southern blood, my heresy, damn that ol' confederacy. It took a long time to become the thing I am to you. And you won't tear it apart without a fight, without a heart. I'm sorry for what you have learned, when you feel the tables turn. To run so hard in your race, now you find who set the pace. The landed aristocracy exploiting all your enmity. All your daddies fought in vain, leave you with the mark of Cain. It took a long time to become the thing I am to you. And you won't tear it apart without a fight, without a heart. It took a long time to become you, become you. The center holds, so they say. It never held too well for me. I won't stop short for common ground that vilifies the trodden down. The center held the bonded slave for the sake of industry. The center held the bloody hand of the executioner man. It took a long time to become the thing I am to you. And you won't tear it apart without a fight, without a heart. It took a long time to
