Marriage has been recognized by government (both local and small and national) for millenia, both for protection of children and wives, and husbands; for legal inheritance and paternity reasons. But the underlying reason is because marriage is the foundation of family, which is the foundation of human society. As far as other legal arrangements, there are enough available to choose from.
