And then there's Tchaikovsky on another level, casually dating his sister's son

Imagine you and your cousin getting married knowing that that's your aunt's son....

Can I just say that I appreciate that you take the time to pronounce composers’ names with their native language(s) in mind? I love that these shorts are so detailed. ☺️🙌🏻

I really like your unique narrating style:)

Actually, consanguinity is still very high throughout the Middle East and Africa. Take Palestine for example, where 44.3% of the marriages are between relatives. In Iran it’s about 38.6%, in Saudi Arabia it’s 39%, in Yemen it’s 49%, Oman 39%, Afghanistan it’s 40-49%, and in Pakistan 50%.

2nd cousin is acceptable even in todays laws in most countries. But 1st cousin is not.

[davids]

My mother’s grandparents were first cousins. That could actually explain a lot of things.
