So looking at the world, how much is the bride price in the world, let's take stock of them one by one.
First, let's take a look at the wedding bride price in several major developed countries in the world.

Americans don't care too much about getting married, and even many young people choose to be single and like to live freely and without pressure. The United States is a country with many immigrants, and there is no idea of passing on the seed to the next generation, let alone the concept of raising children to prevent old age, and most Americans are self-reliant in their old age, living with pension subsidies, and they do not particularly care about whether their children are filial piety. Americans don't value each other's money when they get married, they care most about each other's appearance and temperament, as long as the two people are suitable, most of the parents on both sides acquiesce in blessings.
The British wedding bride price, which is a veteran developed country in Europe, is also very small, and it is given by the woman's parents, and it is generally symbolically given a little bit for the sake of good luck. The woman's parents generally do not interfere in their girl's marriage, and the most important thing depends on whether their girl really likes each other.

British people generally choose manors, castles, churches, hotels, etc., and the solemnity of the wedding is generally determined according to the financial ability of both parents.
The wedding bride price in France, a major developed country in Europe, is also very low, or even almost non-existent. The French like romance, they value love the most, they don't particularly care about how rich and noble they are, and the most important thing is that two people like each other. The French do not get married too solemnly, but they are very concerned about the sense of ceremony and generally choose to be in the castle church. There are also wedding officiants and witnesses, the man is wearing a suit, the woman is wearing a white wedding dress, there is an indispensable sprinkling link, and relatives and friends of both sides will be present to bless. The wedding banquet is also very simple for French people to get married with only a few gifts, the main picture is to be happy, and they will have a party to celebrate!
Germany, the richest developed country in Europe, also has a very small and negligible wedding bride price. There is no bride price for Germans to get married, and the gap between the rich and the poor in Germany is not large, and there is also no big gap in wages. The salary is also relatively high, and as long as an ordinary family goes to work normally, it can fully cope with various expenses, so there is no need to worry about getting married and having no money.
Russia, which ranks third in the world in terms of national strength, has no wedding bride price, although Russia has a vast territory, but the population is sparse, there are many boys and girls, leaving many leftover women. There is no pressure on a Russian man to get married, as long as he is good to the woman.
Australia, a developed country in Oceania, has no bride price for marriage, and Australia is in line with the new idea of Western developed countries, that is, a new style of simple marriage.

India, the most populous country in Asia, has an expensive wedding bride price, but the bride price is paid by the woman's family, and the bride price is $130,000. This strange rule is due to the low status of Indian women, and Indian women give a little more bride price to the man in order to be treated well by the man's family.
In developed countries in Asia, the bride price of Japanese wedding bride price generally pays 1 million to 1.5 million yen, which is equivalent to three months' salary. According to the high local salary level in Japan, there is no pressure for Japanese men to get married.

The pressure on the woman's family is not small, although the proposal fee is collected, the man's family will ask the woman's family to pay a bride price, which is not less than 200,000 yuan.
Finally, let's talk about the wedding bride price in our country, the wedding bride price in some provinces in China is expensive, for example, the starting price of the wedding bride price in Jiangxi and Fujian is 200,000, and the wedding bride price in some provinces is cheap, such as about 20,000 yuan in Chongqing, and even lower in Guangdong, 10,000 yuan in the bride price.
