I just got divorced and had to go to court to do it
Yeah, divorce laws seem to vary considerably around the world, but in most countries it is a legal process.
Yes it is and they basically decide what bills you get out of the marriage as well as assets like house
And then of course there are the issues of alimony, child custody, child support/visitation, etc..

Of course, divorce is different from annulment, which declares the marriage null and void
I never knew what anulment meant thanks for that info
Grounds for divorce (United States)
Grounds for divorce are regulations specifying the circumstances under which a person will be granted a divorce. Each state in the United States has its own set of grounds. A person must state the reason they want a divorce at a divorce trial and be able to prove that this reason is well-founded.
Several states require that the couple must live apart for several months before being granted a divorce. However, living apart is not accepted as grounds for a divorce in many states
