What Would Have Happened If Wizards Never Went into Hiding? - Harry Potter Theory

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we'll be discussing whether or not Muggles would have evolved the way that we did if witches and wizards had never gone into hiding.

For centuries leading up to the late 1700s, individuals with magical abilities - primarily witches - were hunted down and persecuted by Muggles. In what would later be referred to as the infamous witch hunts, formal and informal trials were held between the 14th and 18th centuries in which global communities tried and executed around 40,000 to 60,000 people. 50-to-70,000 more people were accused without being condemned. Among these witch hunts were the infamous Salem Witch Trials of the early 1690s, where the brutalities of the American townsfolk killed 19 people for crimes that included worshipping the devil and taking part in sinful activities.

Around this same time, in the latter half of the 1700s, people with magical abilities - who had previously lived openly among Muggles - disappeared from Muggle society. This, of course, was due to the institution of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy, a law that was conceived to protect the wizarding world from the threats of ill-advised Muggles, which went into effect in the year of 1689.

This is also around the same time in history in which Muggles began rapidly evolving. In particular, we had the Age of Enlightenment

What If EVERY First-year Was Sorted into the SAME House? - Harry Potter Theory

What If EVERY First-year Was Sorted into the SAME House? - Harry Potter Theory

Shortly after entering the Great Hall, each and every new first year student is required to place the fabled Sorting Hat upon their head.And the Hat, which has the unique and essential task of assigning new students to one of the four houses, will place this new student in to Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, or Slytherin.For the most part, this process runs pretty smoothly, with students being sorted across the board.But what if for some strange reason, things didn't go quite as smoothly as they usually do? What if the Sorting process led to a completely disproportionate number of students in one house? Or better yet, what if one or more houses had no new students at all?Today we're tackling all of that (and more) as we dive (deeper) in to the Sorting Ceremony.

History of Borgin & Burkes - Harry Potter History

History of Borgin & Burkes - Harry Potter History

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we'll be discussing the history of the infamous wizarding shop known as Borgin and Burkes.Established in 1863 by two wizards - a Mr. Borgin, first name unknown, and a Mr. Caractacus Burke - Borgin and Burkes has always had a rather notorious reputation. The shop is located at 13B Knockturn Alley, a street said to be quite dangerous, which can be found just off of London's main wizarding road of Diagon Alley. The dangers present along Knockturn Alley come from both the nefarious businesses that operate down the street, in addition to the questionable witches and wizards who frequent these establishments. In fact, the street has such a bad reputation that Molly Weasley forbade her children - specifically Fred and George - from venturing down the Alley at all.
