Because many people regard cousin couplings as taboo, they mistakenly assume that even an infrequent presence of coupled cousins in a
means that the descendants must have one or more genetic diseases. The risk of such diseases rises when a lineage includes many cousin couplings.
The royal couples listed here are but a small representation of the innumerable cousins of varying degrees who have married between royal or noble houses. Due to the constitutional interest that their marital status raises, as well as the fact that genealogical records of royal houses are more plentiful and readily available than those of ordinary people, their bloodlines are better known than those of commoners.
