Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing The Sacred Twenty-Eight. More specifically, we'll be diving in to WHY the Potter family were excluded from this 'exclusive' list.Let's start with the most obvious question: What is The Sacred Twenty-Eight? Well, as you may already know, it's actually more a question of WHO, rather than WHAT. Alright, so WHO exactly are they and how did they come to be? The Sacred Twenty-Eight is a "Pure-Blood Directory" of the wizarding world's supposed most pure-blooded magical families - which is to say, the witches and wizards whose ancestors had not "muddied" their blood lines with Muggle integration. A 'Pure-blood' was classified as a witch or wizard who had no muggles, squibs, muggle-borns or half-bloods in their family tree.But while the list does indeed account for 28 pure-blood wizarding families, it's worth noting that one of the most FAMOUS surnames in Harry Potter- you guessed it..POTTER- is excluded from the list. The Potter's were pure-blood's, weren't they? Why were they excluded from this prestigious list?Socials: https://linktr.ee/hptheory
