What if the Soviet Union legalizes polygamy for non-Muslims after the end of World War II as an emergency measure to restore the Soviet Union's pre-war rate of population growth? The reason that this would be limited to non-Muslims is because Muslims would be more likely to abuse any legalization of polygamy and also because Muslims suffered less from World War II demographically speaking than other Soviet groups did.
Just how many Soviet men would decide to have more than one wife in such a scenario? And just how much higher will the Soviet Union's population have become by 1991 in this scenario? And what effect would this have had on Soviet-Western relations and on Western attitudes towards the sexual revolution in general?
Thoughts? Also, one more thing: If the husband would have died, then the marriage would have immediately become dissolved, right?
