Christianity believes that monogamy is the only form of marriage. Christianity believes that sexual behavior other than husband and wife is a crime, and only sexual behavior between husband and wife is to please God. With the widespread spread and prosperity of Christianity, monogamy has become the main marriage mode in many parts of the world.
Nowadays, the royal family generally has some image functions, such as the Queen of England and her royal family members. They represent the national image and have certain diplomatic rights and other rights, and sometimes they can exercise some legal veto rights. However, with the strengthening of the rights of parliament and political parties, the power of the royal family is gradually shrinking.

By the beginning of19th century, with the rise of modern countries and the end of imperial territorial expansion, royal marriage no longer assumed the "heavy responsibility" of territorial expansion. The monarch has gradually become a symbol and can no longer directly exercise sovereignty.
Royal marriage in Europe is still confined to the narrow circle of the royal family. Because most people think that if the royal family marries people with low social status, it will destroy the succession to the throne. This "etiquette" has been strengthened with the government's decision to use royal marriage as a tool of foreign policy. However, this practice sometimes leads to disaster.
George IV, King of England, was engaged to Caroline, Princess of Brunswick before he ascended the throne, which was regarded as a policy act at that time.
Brunswick is near Hanover, Germany, but it belongs to the British royal family. The couple never met before marriage and hated each other as soon as they got married. George IV even sent troops to drive Caroline away from his coronation ceremony. Later, with Caroline's encouragement, large-scale demonstrations broke out in Britain, and George IV became one of the most unpopular monarchs in British history.
However, the marriage between George IV's niece Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, a member of the German royal family, was very successful. Marriage was chosen by Queen Victoria and was not designed as a diplomatic "pro-marriage". Before getting married, two young people also have enough time to get to know each other. However, in order to avoid being misunderstood as a marriage with political purposes, Albert later became a prince instead of a king.
