I don't know about all countries obviously, but you are splitting everything evenly that you earned as a team after marriage, right? Any wealth you accumulated before marriage should not be affected.

It depends. If you mingle assets it gets complicated. If you have 401k before but add money post marriage into that account, the entire account is now split. Same goes with any account. If you add outside money to that account it is now mutually owned. If you own a house, you can't allow your spouse to pay for any updates or risk coownership in the divorce.
