The early modern time was an important stage during British social transformation, when great changes took place in British aristocracy marriage. It showed such characteristics as "three highs and one low": a high marriage rate, a high age of marriage, a high rate of endogamy but a low divorce rate. Such factors as the necessity to maintain family blood, the overwhelming primogeniture, the strengthening concept of family status, the chase for economic benefits, the intervention of the monarchy, and religious influence, might have played important roles during the formation of the mentioned phenomena.
