Detailed explanation-1: -It is widely agreed that the origin of marriage dates well before recorded history, but the earliest recorded evidence of marriage ceremonies uniting one woman and one man dates from about 2350 B.C. in the Far East.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the middle ages, girls were typically in their teens when they married, and boys were in their early twenties. The arrangement of the marriage was based on monetary worth.
Detailed explanation-3: -After a slight fall between 1851 and 1861, the ages at marriage for both men and women increased, although on slightly different trajectories, so that men and women were marrying on average at ages 27.5 and 26.2 in England and Wales in 1911, and ages 28.3 and 26.4 in Scotland in 1901.
Detailed explanation-4: -Arranged marriages are believed to have initially risen to prominence in the Indian subcontinent when the historical Vedic religion gradually gave way to classical Hinduism (the ca. 500 BCE period), substantially displacing other alternatives that were once more prominent.
