Mary's life was a prophesy (Isaiah 7:14) reenacted in flesh. She represents, even now, a 'virgin' age pregnant with a new dispensation.
God does, severally, refer to nations, like Israel(Amos 5:2, Is 37:22) and Babylon(Isaiah 47:1) as virgin daughters. At other occasion though, He called them whores(Jer 3:2,9, Ez 16:17, 20:17,18,19). Whores who get restored, as was with Hosea's wife(Jer 31:4).
Our age is similarly espoused a virgin to Christ. Blinded with the powers of the age, the chosen age / generation has whored after other gods, but she remains the virgin daughter of Christ, espoused and pregnant with a new age, a dispensation that will know righteousness.
