There are lots of multivariate distributions; the problem is essentially that there are "too many". There are different versions of the multivariate t, the most common of which is a multivariate normal divided by a normalized chi. The Dirichlet distribution is a multivariate Beta. The Wishart distribution is a multivariate chi-squared. The multinomial distribution generalizes the binomial. But none of these have the independence properties of multivariate normal. -- This address is for information only.
