Polygyny (; from Neoclassical Greek πολυγυνία from πολύ- poly- "many", and γυνή gyne "woman" or "wife") is the most common and accepted form of polygamy, entailing the marriage of a man with several women. Most countries which permit polygyny are Muslim-majority countries. (Polyandry is the practice of a woman having two or more husbands.)
