What Is Marriage Of Convenience?

Answer:
A marriage for reasons other than love.

It may be arranged to bind two families together, it may be for political reasons, it may be for one of the pair to get citizenship of a foreign country, it may be to honour an agreement between two fathers, it may be because someone has to be married for some reason to inherit property or be popular in the polls.

It may be because a girl is pregnant and wants the baby to be legitimate.
