    Why do we really care who they married? They married and had some fun. That's history. RTW engine doesn't represent it because it's usually considered unacceptable in modern society.

    The RTW engine is quite ridiculous in that regard. Women giving birth from 12 till 50... No divorces and no re-marrying after death of one. I think that part of RTW was programmed by some ultra-conservative christian from the "real America"...

    In MTW you could marry your princesses to your sons. I once tried it out of spontanious boredom and it worked. The heir would get a living-secretly-in-incest-trait or something like that which had bad consequences if it got public.

    In antiquity marriage wasn't about sexual attraction or love. It was about business and politics.

    I'm pretty sure incest wasn't acceptable back then either. At least, Oedipus didn't seem to think so.

    He called his kids abominations which no man would want to look upon .
