Yes, polygamy existed in the 19th century, notably among certain cultures and religious groups. In the United States, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) practiced polygamy until it was officially abandoned in 1890. Additionally, polygamous practices were observed in various regions around the world, including parts of Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, where it was often tied to cultural or religious traditions.
