[edit] Portugal
In Portugal two people living together as a couple (regardless of sex) for more than 2 years are covered by the "União de Facto" Law... they don't have to state that they are together for the law to apply. Should this be called a "Civil Union"?
Marriage rights and duties like join estate, inheritance, critial hospital decisions, control of funeral decisions, and others are not covered by this law, and probably will never be, since it is by definition a law for unregistred couples.
Any comments on this are welcome...
