Wow! United Saudi Arabia (USA)!

Saudi Arabia allows polygyny which is the complete opposite of this.

Allowing polygyny is not the opposite of criminalizing adultery; its quite orthogonal.

Its the opposite of criminalizing polygyny, which is also common in the US, but that's a different issue.

Saudi Arabia criminalizes adultery which is "having an affair". Polygyny means you're legally married which is allowed in Saudi Arabia but having an adulterous relationship is criminal.
