Re: 74.
Re: 74.
While incest isn't morally acceptable or legal in most cases, there are circumstances where typically incestuous relationships are not considered incest by a certain society because of their culture:
"For example, Trobriand Islanders prohibit both sexual relations between a man and his mother, and between a woman and her father, but they describe these prohibitions in very different ways: relations between a man and his mother fall within the category of forbidden relations among members of the same clan; relations between a woman and her father do not. This is because the Trobrianders are matrilineal; children belong to the clan of their mother and not of their father. Thus, sexual relations between a man and his mother's sister (and mother's sister's daughter) are also considered incestuous, but relations between a man and his father's sister are not. Indeed, a man and his father's sister will often have a flirtatious relationship, and a man and the daughter of his father's sister may prefer to have sexual relations or marry.
Examples from other societies further reveal the variation in local understandings of incest. In Chinese societies, there is a strong taboo against marriage of persons with the same surname no matter how distantly related. There are often local taboos against marriage between people of certain surnames on the grounds that these surnames belong to clans which were closely related in the past. Similarly, although marriage between first cousins is forbidden in some contemporary jurisdictions it is both legal and acceptable in others."
Wikipedia is useful.

Yay for wikipedia.
Re: 74.
I wrote a paper on the Trobriand Islanders back in the day. So. Much. Love. I actually meant examples of "civilized" society wherein incest isn't a taboo. XD

But yeah, royalty too. They wanted to/(still want to?) "strengthen the bloodline".
