Swaziland is a small country on the border of South Africa and Mozambique. There is a monarchy. Because the rule there is also in the hands of a king.
The history of the country says that he has been living in the country since 1940. This rule was introduced to save the virginity of girls before marriage and for some other reasons.
At present, the king of that country is ‘King Emsati III.’ He became king in 1986 at the age of 18. Since then, he has been marrying a virgin every year. He also divorced three wives. She even has more than 30 children.
