In the Arabian Peninsula at the time when Mohammed came to spread the message, many men had dozens of wives and it was unfair to the women because they simply could not be treated fairly. So Islam came in to make it more moderate and God knows that the most wives a man can have and be fair to all of them is 4 at a time.
