A quick definition of duplex valor maritagii:

Term: duplex valor maritagii

Definition: Duplex valor maritagii is a legal term that means "double the value of a marriage." In the past, when a child was under the care of a guardian, the guardian had the power to arrange a suitable marriage for the child. If the child refused the match, they would forfeit the value of the marriage to their guardian. If the child married without the guardian's consent, they would forfeit double the value of the marriage. This was considered a harsh punishment in ancient times.

A more thorough explanation:

Duplex valor maritagii

Duplex valor maritagii is a legal term that means "double the value of a marriage." In the past, if a ward (a young person under the care of a guardian) got married without their guardian's permission, they would have to pay double the value of the marriage as a penalty.

For example, if a ward got married and the value of the marriage was $10,000, but they did not have their guardian's permission, they would have to pay $20,000 as a penalty. This was a way to discourage young people from getting married without their guardian's approval.

This law was considered very harsh because it meant that young people had to pay a lot of money if they wanted to marry someone their guardian did not approve of. It was also unfair because it only applied to wards and not to other people who got married without their parents' permission.
