Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing Wizarding conflicts.
In the wizarding world of Britain, the threat of Lord Voldemort and his followers, the Death Eaters, cast a dark, ominous shadow over the entire magical population- a shadow that persisted for a long long time.
Voldemort's reign of terror brought unprecedented tyranny to the wizarding world. Under his leadership, the Death Eaters mercilessly targeted and persecuted those who opposed them, instilling fear throughout the Wizarding community. Through his manipulation of dark magic, Voldemort was able to orchestrate a wide array of atrocities, ranging from mass murders to the infiltration and corruption of influential institutions like the Ministry of Magic. Via his insatiable thirst for power and dominance, Voldemort left a trail of destruction, that for a long time, forced Britain's wizarding population to live in constant fear and subjugation.
But perhaps the most surprising outcome of Voldemort's reign of terror is the notable absence of external assistance or international intervention during this perilous period in Britain's Wizarding history.
As the threat of Voldemort grew, one would expect that neighboring countries, concerned about the potential ramifications on magical communities worldwide and the delicate balance between the magical and muggle worlds, would have rallied to support the subjugated wizards and witches of Britain.
If Voldemort was such a menace, why didn't other heroic wizards and witches from the international wizarding community volunteer to help fight against him?
