But if history teaches us anything, it’s that Emperors don’t know when to stop. — About Akbar the Great’s legendary harem of 5000 Concubines
Mughal emperor Akbar had 5000 women in his harem! With every conquest, his harem expanded with daughters of conquered kings! Along with a legion of Eunuchs to keep an eye on those women in the Harem! Akbar had 300 wives. The rest were dancing girls, concubines and sex slaves.
Some guys collect stamps. King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines.
My conclusion:
Some men collect stamps. Others collect tramps.
