The Kalif or Boss of Corfu has, by tradition, six wives and two husbands. This is because while a new Kalif may have more, they must never have less spouses than the last. When Margaret McGonagall became Kalif in 1842 she brought her then Husband and another man who she promptly married as well. This means that the Kalif of Corfu is the only world leader to have a gay marriage that is mandated by local laws. This is extraordinary, as the Greek Government has been convinced that Corfu sank into the ocean and became a part of Spain in 1422.
