Magic World Rowling Rowling. , led by an official entitled Minister of Magic. The magical British government is first mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone; The ministry makes its first proper appearance in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Throughout the books, he is regularly portrayed as corrupt, elitist and utterly incompetent, with his high-ranking officials blind to ominous events and unwilling to take action against threats to the society of wizards. Dolores Ambridge was placed in to see what was going on at the school and to prevent the news that Voldemort had returned from the spread. He reached the zenith of corruption before being actually taken over by . At the end of the final book, after Voldemort's death, Kingsley Scheklebolt takes over the ministry, changing it for the better. By the time Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, is the Minister of Magic. Composition and status Connection with the Maggle World Every new Prime Minister receives a visit from the Minister of Magic, who informs them of the existence of the magical world. The Minister explains that they will contact the Prime Minister only in conditions where the events of the magical world can affect the . For example, the Minister must inform the Prime Minister if dangerous magical artifacts or animals are to be brought to the UK. The Ministry communicates with the British Prime Minister through a portrait of a in the Prime Minister's office at 10 Downing Street. The portrait, which cannot be removed from the wall (due to the constant charm of sticking in place), notifies the Prime Minister of the arrival of the Minister of Magic and, after they have been notified, the Minister of Magic appears in their office through the fireplace, which was to the floo network. (HP6) Ministers of magic who appear in the Harry Potter series, such as Cornelius Fudge and Rufus Skridge, tend to act in a somewhat patronising manner towards the Prime Minister of Muggles. The ministry government succeeded the earlier Council of Wizards, the earliest known form of government for the magical world of Harry Potter. According to , it was officially founded in 1707. The government structure In the Harry Potter books, the ministry's staff appears to be a largely unelected body. However, the minister herself has been declared an elected post. It is never explained who has the right to elect or dismiss ministers. However, both the minister and the ministry as a whole are seen throughout the Harry Potter series to be highly sensitive to (and dependent on) the master of public opinion they are trying to influence through magical newspapers. In books, employment with the ministry can be obtained immediately after completing the magic of education, although different offices require different levels of education and sometimes specific exam results. In addition, the government gives the impression (at different times) of either incompetence or malice. He often seems extremely incompetent, to the extent that unable to detect or prevent an attack on the Department of Mysteries, apparently his most heavily guarded department. Because of the weak security, a group of Hogwarts students, as well as Voldemort, a dozen Death Eaters, and the Order of the Phoenix, all of whom have been wanted by the government, can enter the department on a whim and without provoking any response at all, even entering as a rescue mission without attracting attention. However, these events take place during the reign of Cornelius Fudge, a minister who is known in the books as incompetent. (HP5) Fudge's resignation in the next book is a direct result of these events. (HP6) Judicial system and corruption In books and movies, magic courts are displayed from time to time, a noticeable lack of interest in the evidence for or against the suspect, even relying on personal prejudices to decide the result as quickly as possible. (HP5) Not all defendants are even given trials, as in the case of . (HP4) In the Order of Phoenix, the ministry is shown to be quite ready to decree and enforce draconian laws without notice. At times, the ministry may also seem uninterested in solving serious problems, choosing instead to ignore or hide bad news. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Fudge has long responded to the Hogwarts attacks. In the fourth and fifth games, Fudge refuses to believe that Lord Voldemort has returned, despite mounting evidence. Ministry even mounts campaign to damage Harry's credibility the effort is fueled in part by Fudge's fear that wants forcibly remove him from the post. In the end, the Ministry is forced to recognize the emergency and take action on it. Fudge was subsequently removed for incompetence and replaced by Rufus Scrimrjur. In the interview, Rowling said that when Harry, Ron and Hermione work in the ministry, they significantly change it, making it less corrupt. The Department of Magical Law Enforcement's Department of Magical Law Enforcement is a combination of police and justice. It is located on the second level of the Ministry of Magic. At the beginning of the series, it is headed by Amelia Bones, who is replaced by Pius Thicke after the murder of Voldemort. (HP6) Thickness is replaced by Yaxley in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows after Voldemort appointed Tolstoy a puppet minister of his regime. Bartemus Crouch Sr. once headed the department, until the first book. (HP4) Harry Potter became its head to the events of the Cursed Child. According to Rowling, this is the department joined by Hermione Granger, after the events of the seventh book, translating from the Department of Regulation and Control of magical creatures, where she began her career after Hogwarts. The Office of the Auror Ministry uses aurors to pursue and apprehend dark wizards. According to Minerva McGongall, Auror is accepting new recruits with a minimum of 5 N.E.W.T.s (with marks not lower than expectations). It suggests that potions, protection from the dark arts, Transfiguration, Charms and Herbology of the N.E.W.T.s are the most appropriate subjects for those seeking admission to the curriculum. A potential rookie also has to pass ... a number of tests of character and ability. Nymphador Tonks mentions that training programs include Sneak and Disguise and Stealth and Tracking, and that training is difficult to pass with high marks. The aurors in the Harry Potter series include Alastor, Nymphador Tonks, Kingsley Scheklebolt, John Dolish, Frank and Alice Longbottom, Rufus Skrimdjour, Gawain Robards, Hesfaest Gore, Pmood, Savage, and Williamson. Harry himself later joins the department and according to Rowling's 2007 interview eventually promoted to head of the department. During the First War, the Voldemorts were allowed to use unforgivable curses on the suspected Death Eaters: that is, they were licensed to kill, coerce and torture them. Many of the dark criminals in the Harry Potter universe first duel with the kidnappers sent to arrest them before finally giving up their freedom. Aurors also work to protect high-profile targets such as Harry, Hogwarts, and Muggle Prime Minister - in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix auror Kingsley Shacklebolt worked secretly in the Prime Minister's muggle security detail. Misuse of the magic office The misuse of the magic agency is responsible for investigating wrongdoing under the Decree on the Reasonable Restriction of the Rights of Juvenile Witchcraft and the Statute of Secrecy of the International Confederation of Wizards. They regulate the use of magic by unsmuning wizards or witches and prohibit wizards and witches from performing magic in the presence of Muggles or in an area inhabited by Muggles in the Harry Potter universe. Children are enchanted by the Trail, which helps the department identify wrongdoing; it breaks down when they reach the age of 17. (HP7) However, Dumbledore explains to Harry that the ministry cannot say exactly who uses magic in this area, only that it has been used. This can be seen as unfair to young witches and wizards who grew up in the muggle world (such as muggle-born masters or those with one magical and one muggle parent) because they are more likely to be caught by magic than those who grow up in the . Those who live in the muggle world generally have no contact with other witches or wizards away from school, and the Ministry simply assumes that any magic performed where they are, is an act of juvenile witchcraft, while at the same time suggesting that any magic performed in the house of wizards in which minors are present has been performed by those aged 17 years and older. This means that minors living in the wizarding world are much more likely to escape punishment for using juvenile magic. The ministry must rely on wizards and witches parents to enforce a ban on under-age magic in their homes. (HP6) It is not known how and when the footprint is on the child, although it can be assumed that it begins either when the child begins to show magical talent, or when he first passes through the barrier on the platform 93/4. The ministry seemingly ignored the footprints during the school year as students at Hogwarts were expected to perform magic and were supervised by teachers. This blind eye also seems to extend to places such as Diagon Lane, Platform 93/4, Hogwarts Express and Hogsmead Village (the only settlement in the UK inhabited exclusively by wizards and other magical creatures), which is located near Hogwarts and which students from Year 3 and above can visit on weekends provided they have a signed permit from their parent or guardian. The ministry also seems to be turning a blind eye to the use of magic in the world of muggles when a child under the age of 11 as their powers have not usually been designed enough to cause problems, with a number of witches and wizards, including Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Evans and are all known to have performed some unsatisable age of magic while growing up in a magla world that went unpunished. After Harry's first minor infraction - the charm of The Hover, which was actually performed by Dobby Dom-elf- he just warned. (HP2) His second violation, explosion explosion Marge, says goodbye to Fudge because the minister fears that Sirius Black is after Harry and feels his safety after fleeing the Dursleys is a priority. (HP3) After his third crime (creating a patron to protect himself and Dudley from two dementors), the letter sent to him states that he is expelled from school, that representatives will come to his home to destroy his wand, and that he is required to appear at a disciplinary hearing, given that the crime occurred after he had already received one warning. (HP5) Dumbledore reminds Fudge that the ministry does not have the authority to expel students from Hogwarts or confiscate sticks without attending hearings. (HP5) At Harry's hearing, he was tried throughout the Wizengamot court and cleared of all charges following Dumbledore's intervention. However, such proceedings are very unusual for a simple case of magic for minors; Harry was originally expected to be questioned exclusively by Amelia Bones, head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. (HP5) The only known employee in the office is Mafalda Hopkirk. Wizengamot Wizengamot serves as a master of the Supreme Court. The word Wizengamot is portmanteau created from the words of the wizard, and Witenagemot, who was the advice of influential people, called to advise and appoint kings in Anglo-Saxon England. The word comes from the old English to meet the wise men (witan - wise man or counselor / gemot - assembly) In the order of Phoenix, about fifty people are present at the Harry Potter hearing, wearing plum-colored clothes embroidered with silver W on the left side of the chest. During the hearing, the Minister of Magic sits in the middle of the front row and conducts most of the interrogation, while Percy Weasley (junior deputy secretary) acts as a stenographer. Other officials seen in Wizengamot include a senior deputy minister and the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. Dumbledore had been the chief sorcerer of Wiesengamot for a long time - about 50 years. It was removed at the beginning of the novel of the Order of the Phoenix and restored at the end. He remained in office for one year, until his death at the end of Half-Blood Prince. Other offices other offices include the Magic Law Enforcement Squad, which pursues day-to-day offenses; abuse of the Muggle Artifacts Office, led by Perkins, and a work in which the reader first sees Arthur Weasley; and the discovery and confiscation of the office's fake defensive spells and protective features, created by Rufus Scrimrjur in the Harry Potter and the Poterf Prince, in which Mr. Weasley is promoted, is its head. The Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters is responsible for repairing the accidental magical damage in the world of Harry Potter. Located on the third level of the Ministry of Magic and home the following offices: The Occasional Magic Reversal Squad Squad Masters, whose job is to reverse random magic. These accidents are usually caused by young witches and wizards who have not learned to control their magic. They can also be caused by older wizards out of control, or by the severe, unintended consequences of spells or spells, such as splicing (in the phenomenon, when a wizard or witch shares with one part remaining at the point of origin and the rest of the wizard at the destination). For example, two members of the accidental Magic Reversal Squad were sent to the book and the film Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban when Harry Potter fooled Aunt Marge; they blew her away and erased her memory of inflation (memory change made by Obliviators). Obliviator headquarters. The oblivion is a designation for an employee of the Ministry of Magic, who has the task of changing the memory of Muggle, who is a witness to incidents belonging to the Magic World. They are first called so in the sixth volume, although practice is mentioned in previous novels: any master can change memories in the Harry Potter books using the spell of Obliviate. In contrast to the incompetence shown by the Ministry as a whole, the Oblivion seems to perform its task with near-perfect success, keeping the muggle world completely oblivious to the existence of the Magic World. They were sent out in the third book when, after they had blown away Aunt Marge, they erased her memory of the incident. The Muggle-Worthy Sorry Committee explains any major magical accidents with Muggles, creating a non-magical cause of the accident. For example, Peter Pettigrew killed twelve Muggle passers-by and tore the street (to get to the sewer pipe and escape) with the help of a huge curse of the explosion during his quarrel with Sirius Black. The committee attributed the huge and obvious damage and mortality to the tragic accidental explosion of the gas company. The Department of Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, as noted in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the Department of Magical Creature Regulation and Control is divided into three units (Beast Division, Time Division, and Spirit Division) and contains the Goblin Communications Office and the Communications Office, although , being isolationists, have never interacted with the office since its inception. Thus, sending to the Centaur office became a euphemism for those who are about to be fired. (HPF) For more information on the differences between these units, see also noted that Hermione began her career after Hogwarts here before moving to the Department of Magical Law In this office. It is located on the fourth level of the Ministry of Magic. The Department of International Magical Cooperation of the Department of International Magical Cooperation is an agency that tries to get craftsmen from different countries to cooperate in magical actions, both political and public. (HP4) This department at the fifth level of the Ministry of Magic includes the headquarters of the International Magical Trade Standards Authority, the International Magic Law Office and the British sites of the International Wizarding Confederation. The former head was Barty Crouch Sr., until his death. It was here that Percy Weasley began his career in the ministry. This department is similar to the real Minister for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs of the and various United Nations bodies. Among the duties of the Department of International Magical Cooperation are: Working with the magical governments of other countries set standards for trade To create rules for things like the thickness of the cauldron Working with the Department of Magic Games and Sport at the Triwizard tournament of the International Masters Confederation, the British Places Department of Magical Transport Department Magic Transport is responsible for various aspects of magical transport. It is located on the sixth level of the Ministry of Magic and includes the following offices: Floo Network Authority, responsible for the creation and maintenance of the network, and the distribution of greenish floo powder; regulating the control of the broom, which controls the movement of the broomstick; Portki Office, Portkeys Regulation; and the Appearance Test Center, which licenses witches and wizards so that they can use them. The Department of Magic Games and Sports Department of Magic Games and Sports, regarded as the most relaxed department (posters for favorite teams are attached to the walls), is engaged in organizing sporting events like the World Cup on quidditch and the Triwizard tournament. Ludo Bagman was the head of the department here, but his gambling problems forced him to flee from Goblin's creditors. The department is located on the seventh level of the Ministry of Magic, and includes the British and Irish headquarters of the League of quidditch, the Official Club of gobstones, and the ridiculous patents of the Office - other sports and games related to aspects of the World of Harry Potter. The Department of Mysteries Department, located on the ninth level, is a department in the Ministry of Magic that examines specific mysteries (death, time, space, thoughts and love) and keeps copies of prophecies made in the Harry Potter universe. During Voldemort's discriminatory regime, he forces the department to lie and claim that Muggle-born men actually steal magic from Pure Blood, making them illegal magicians and allowing them to be arrested. (HP7) Because of the hidden around this particular branch of the Magic Government, the Department of Mysteries can be compared to real intelligence agencies such as the CIA or MI6 in that most of their operations are kept in complete secrecy from the general wizard population. However, the main operations department seem to be more like scientists as they try to uncover the sources and rules that govern magic. The rooms in the Department each seem (though not outlined directly) to denote the various mysteries of life. These rooms include: Title Description Of the Brain Content Room This long, rectangular room is illuminated by lamps hanging low on gold chains from the ceiling. It's pretty empty, except for a few tables. A glass tank made of deep green liquid. There are a few pearly white brains drifting in this tank. When removing a potion in a tank, the brains wash out stretch marks thoughts that can seriously hurt someone if they wrap themselves around them. Other doors open in this room. The entrance room is large, round room - all black. Identical, unmarked, handleless black doors are installed at intervals around in the walls. Dimly lit by blue inflamed branches of candles. Whenever one of its doors is closed, the walls of the room rotate, disorienting its inhabitants for a few seconds. Presumably, it is a security device to prevent the department staff from getting to the right premises. Responds to an oral exit request by opening the right door. The Dark Room space chamber may be simulating outer space. Visitors find themselves floating as well. Magically simulated floating solar system. The death chamber is a large, dimly lit rectangular room with stone tiers (like benches) leading down to the pit in the center. It's like an amphitheatre. Called Dumbledore's Death Chamber. In the pit is a raised, stone platform on which stands an ancient arch with an ancient, torn black curtain hanging from it. Despite the lack of wind, he constantly trembles slightly, and the entrances of his audience. Harry Potter hears faint voices from behind the veil as he approaches him in the books. It was through this arch that Sirius Black fell and died in the Order of the Phoenix. The room's time camera is illuminated by a beautiful, dancing diamond light. A room that stores various time-related devices, such as each description clock and Time-Turners (hourglass necklaces that will send the wearer back in time when the pendant is flipped). It also contains a mysterious can of bells, inside which everything will steadily grow younger and younger, and then slowly return to its original age in an endless cycle. Hermione mentions that the entire stock of broken Time-Turners was not even replaced by September 1996. (HP6) Hall of Prophecy Cathedral-sized room, and a very cold, illuminated dim blue fire radiated from more Brackets. Vertical to the door shelves holding thousands of balls (records of prophecies). To the left of the door are lines No. 1 - 53, and to the right of the door rows No. 54 and further. They are magically protected, so that the only people who can remove them from the shelf are the Keeper of the Hall of Prophecies and the subject (s) of prophecies; everyone else suffers from instant madness. Whenever a ball breaks, the recorded prophecy it contains is repeated aloud once, after which the recording is useless. Sybil Trelawney's 1980 prophecy of the boy who will defeat the Dark Lord is kept here until the events of the Order of the Phoenix, in which he was defeated. The eternally closed room (Love Camera) is the room behind the door that remains locked at all times and which neither Alohomora spell nor magical unlock knives can unlock. According to Dumbledore, behind this door is the most mysterious subject of study in the department: a force that is both more beautiful and terrible than death than human intelligence than the forces of nature... It is the power held in this room that Harry possesses in such quantities and which Voldemort has no at all. In Half-Blood Prince, this power was confirmed by the dialogue between Harry and Dumbledore to be love. The untold Untold are a group of craftsmen who work in the Department of Mysteries (their identities are classified for security reasons). Famous Untold include Broderick Bode, Croaker, HP4 and August Rookwood, who is a . Ministry officials Some ministry officials in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, from left to right: John Dolish, Auror; Dolores Ambridge, Senior Deputy Minister; Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic; and Kingsley Sheklebolt, Ouoror. The following characters are notable by Ministry of Magic officials. Arthur Weasley, Kingsley Scheklebolt and Nymphador Tonks are listed under the Order of the Phoenix. Yaxley is listed under death eaters. Ludo Bagman Louis Ludo Bagman is a retired professional quidditch player, a former highly successful beater for Wimbourne Wasps and an England international whose good looks have gone a bit seeded; his nose is crushed in (apparently there were broken stray Bludger) and he is quite a little thicker in the middle than he was in his quidditch days. He was the head of the department of magic games and sports. Rowling uses Dumbledore's Pensieve to show in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire that Bagman was accused of being the Death Eater about thirteen years before the events of the fourth book because he gave information to the newly discovered Death Eater August rookwood. He stated that he considered Rookwood, who was a friend of his father, to be beyond suspicion, and that therefore he thought he was helping passing on information to him. Bagman loves gambling, which got him into financial trouble so serious that he pays some of his creditors (including ) with the disappearance of Leprechaun Gold after they played at the World Cup in quidditch. After the World Cup final, some goblins corner him in the woods outside the stadium and take all the gold he had on him, which is not enough to cover his debts. To pay off his debts with goblins, Bagman bets on the triwizard tournament, of which he is one of the judges. He puts goblins that Harry will win. He tries to help Harry during the tournament by giving him the perfect score in the first task, even if he got injured, and offers him advice. Harry and ended up tying for top spot in the tournament, and Bagman didn't win the bet as the Goblins claim that Bagman was betting Harry would win immediately. Bagman escapes after the third challenge of the tournament. Bagman's character was cut from the film adaptation of the fourth book. Some of Ludo's main features in the story were performed by Cornelius Fudge and Barty Crouch Sr., in the film adaptation. Bagman appears in Harry Potter: the quidditch World Cup video game as the announcer of quidditch. Barty Crouch Sr. Bartemius Crouch Sr. was head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement when Voldemort first came to power. Crouch was somewhat mania of grandeur and intensely preoccupied with presenting the appearance of respectability. Crouch was a narrow, inflexible man who followed the rules harshly. Although he despised the Dark Arts, the lengths to which he was willing to go to disassociate himself from anything that might infuriate his reputation led him to behave almost as brutally as many on the Dark Side, and gave the Aurors the power to kill rather than capture the suspected Death Eaters who resisted arrest. He sent Sirius Black to Azkaban's wizard prison without trial. Crouch proved to be the favorite to become the next minister of magic until his son, Barty Crouch Jr., was caught with Lesrange, the Death Eaters who helped the Voldemort in power. Crouch gave his son a trial before sending him to Azkaban; however, according to Sirius, the trial was a fictitious, just a public demonstration of how much he hated the boy. About a year after the trial, Crouch's terminally ill wife pleaded to save her son's life, so Crouch incited them to trade with Polyjuice Potion, and Mrs Crouch took her son's place in Azkaban. After his son's alleged death in prison, public sympathy fell on Crouch Jr.; The magic world laid all the blame on Crouch Sr., accusing him of driving his son to join the Death Eaters because of his disdain for his family. After the scandal Crouch lost most of his popularity, and he was shunted to head the Department of Department of Department Magical collaboration. Barty Crouch Sr. made his first appearance in the series at the World Cup of Quidditch in the Fire Cup. Crouch accuses Harry, Ron, and Hermione of conjured up dark mark, and when Vinka turns up for Harry's wand, he angrily dismisses Winky, as the elf house must take care of his son, who is always under the cloak of the invisible. Voldemort and his servant Peter Pettigrew sat in the Crouch family's house and placed Crouch Sr. under the curse of the Imperius, freeing Crouch Jr. from the curse of the Imperius entrusted to him by his father, thus allowing him to be reunited with Voldemort. Crouch continues to appear in public at first and is one of five judges at the Triwizard tournament. However, worried that Crouch will fight the consequences of the Curse of the Imperius, Voldemort later keeps him in jail in the house and forces him to communicate exclusively through a controlled outpost of the ancedus. Later in the book, Crouch, who escaped from his home, meets Harry and Victor Krum in the Forbidden Forest and begs to see Dumbledore. However, Harry, while on his way to inform Dumbledore of events, unwittingly warns Crouch Jr., who uses the Mad-Eye Moody form, about the presence of his father. Crouch Jr. immediately goes into the woods, kills his own father, transforms the body into a bone and buries him in the grounds of Hogwarts. Roger Lloyd-Pack appeared as Crouch in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. John Dolish John Dawlish is an Auror. He is very capable and confident, and is described as a tough-looking wizard with very short, cunning gray hair. He leaves Hogwarts with outstanding in all his N.E.W.T.s (Nastily Gruelling Magic Test). However, this works joke books that in any appearance or mention of it, it is eventually hexed, usually due to a combination of much higher opponents and just bad luck. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Dolish accompanies Fudge to Hogwarts to confront Harry about the secret meetings of Dumbledore's army. Dolish is knocked out along with Fudge, Ambridge and Kingsley when Dumbledore, who takes all the blame for the army, runs away. A few weeks later, Dolish is one of the masters who tries to arrest when Ambridge fires the gamekeeper. Later, Dolish arrives at the Ministry of Magic with Fudge after the battle at the Department of Mysteries is over. Fudge then sends him to participate in the captured Death Eaters. Dolish reappears in Half-Blood Prince, guarding Hogwarts after the outbreak of the Second World War. He goes to follow Dumbledore when the principal leaves the school to look for Horcrux Voldemort, but unfortunately whimpered the headmaster. He is a confunded member of the Order early on in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and gives Death Eater Korban Yaxley false information about Harry's removal from the Dursleys' Being funded, he is defeated by Dirk Cresswell, who escapes halfway to Azkaban. Later, Dolish is arrested by Augusta Longbottom. After the fight, her defense places Dolisha in St. Mungo Hospital. Dolish's name is not disclosed in books or in films. However, Rowling said in an interview with the PotterCast podcast that she called him John, thanks to the character's assessment of John Noah. Dolish played Richard Leafs in the film adaptations of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Cornelius Fudge Cornelius Oswald Fudge was first mentioned in the Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone as Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom. He makes his first appearance in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets when he arrives at school to take Hagrid to Azkaban, although he does not firmly believe that Hagrid is guilty. He also removes Dumbledore as principal when he is pressured by Lucius Malfoy, who insisted that all school governors voted for him. However, it's not up to Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban that Fudge meets Harry for the first time. Fudge does not accuse Harry of accidentally inflating Aunt Marge, and advises him to be careful because the escaped convict is at large. When Fudge goes for a social drink at the Three Broomsticks pub, he inadvertently tells the unseen Harry that Sirius was James Potter's best friend and is believed to have betrayed the Potters to Voldemort. Fudge allowed a near-execution of Bakbek to occur, once again intimidating Lucius Malfoy. In this book, as it turned out, before becoming Minister of Magic, he worked in the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters. His gracious attitude to Harry changes dramatically in the Fire Cup. When Harry withdraws from the third task of the Triwizard tournament after seeing Voldemort's revival, Fudge refuses to believe it. He is concerned about the consequences of the announcement of Voldemort's return, which marks the end of many years of peace in the Magic World, and the sudden outbreak of darkness and terror; so he decides to just ignore all the evidence rather than accept the truth. JK Rowling has since said Fudge's behaviour reflects Neville Chamberlain's behaviour in the run-up to World War II. In The Phoenix Order, Fudge organizes a vicious smear campaign through the Daily Prophet to portray Dumbledore as an senile old fool (though he constantly asked for Dumbledore's advice in his early days as minister of magic) and Harry as an unstable, attention-grabbing liar. He also passes a law allowing him to place Dolores Ambridge, his senior deputy, as a teacher at Hogwarts. He then appoints Ambridge's High Inquisitor Hogwarts, with the power to inspect and fire teachers, and ultimately Dumbledore's successor as principal, giving her (and therefore, yourself) the main control over how Hogwarts is managed. Fudge is concerned that Dumbledore poses a threat to his authority and that he plans to train Hogwarts students in overthrowing the ministry. After Voldemort appears in the Ministry of Magic in the Battle of the Secrets, Fudge finally admits that Voldemort has returned, and is fired in disgrace from his position as Minister of Magic after the magic community calls for his resignation and is replaced by Rufus Skrimgur, although he remains an advisor in Half-Blood Prince. Before resigning, he makes several attempts to have Dumbledore arrange a meeting between him and Harry so that Harry can lie down on Fudge's behalf and pretend that the ministry is winning the war, but Dumbledore refuses knowing how funny Harry will find the idea. Fudge was last mentioned in the series as one of the participants in Dumbledore's funeral; his fate during the voldemort's takeover of the ministry over the next year is unknown. Fudge was portrayed by Robert Hardy in the film series. Bertha Jorkins Bertha Jorkins was a student at Hogwarts at the same time as James Potter and Company. She was nosy with a good head for gossip, but also very absent-minded. She became an employee of the Ministry of Magic after leaving Hogwarts. In the summer before the events of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, she was killed by Voldemort. Rowling later admitted that her death was used to turn Nagini, Voldemort's snake, into Horcrux. A few months before the murder, she accidentally discovered that Barty Crouch Jr., who presumably died in Azkaban prison, was still alive and hiding from his father. Barty Crouch Sr. silenced her with a powerful charm of memory that made her a little puzzled. Voldemort irreparably damaged her mentally and physically, breaking the Charm of Memory, which gave him information about the tournament Triwizard and Crouch Jr. During a duel between Harry and Voldemort at the cemetery in Little Hangton, Bertha is one of the shadows that pours out of Voldemort's wand and helps Harry escape. She seems wiser after her death, and supports Harry during the Fire Cup so he can defeat Voldemort, her killer. Rufus Scrimdjour Rufus Skrimdjour served as the Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to his death in the next book, succeeding Cornelius Faj, who was overthrown by the magical community for not announcing voldemort's return, discrediting Harry Potter and Albus Dumbledore, and allowing Dolores Ambridge to become head. He is described as looking like an old lion with red hair and thick eyebrows, yellow eyes and wire glasses. Before being selected as minister, Scrimgeour headed the Auror Office of the Ministry, and he had a heavily combative scar his years of service as an Auror, giving him a kind of shrewd toughness. As a minister he visits Prime Minister Muggle with Fudge, now an adviser, to inform him of the latest magical events, crucial to internal security. Scrimgeour, no matter how tough he looked, was no better than Fudge. He (and the rest of the ministry) was more concerned about the reputation of the ministry than about the fact that the death-eaters and Voldemort posed a danger to the magical world, so they tried to pretend that the ministry was progressing by shielding the breakouts from Azkaban and arresting random suspects such as Stan Shunpaik. He also sought to raise the morale of the magic population by asking Harry, who was described as chosen, to visit the ministry to make the public believe that Harry supported the ministry's actions against Voldemort. This is becoming a source of disagreement between the Minister and Dumbledore, who does not support the idea. Harry also rejects this role, primarily because of his own antagonistic history with the ministry, as well as the ministry's treatment of Dumbledore and Stan Shunpaik. Scrimjour makes a brief appearance, looking tired and gloomy because of the pressure of his position, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in Burrow with Dumbledore's will; the last argument quickly erupts between Harry and him. Skrimdjour was killed shortly after the visit, when the Death Eaters take over the ministry. It is rumoured that he was tortured for harry's whereabouts by ministry officials, under the control of the curse of the Imperius, before he was killed. Harry felt a rush of gratitude after hearing that Scrimjour was trying to protect Harry in his last act by refusing to reveal his location. With the ministry in the hands of death-eaters, the official line for Scrimgeour's death is that he has resigned. Bill Gnai played Scrimjura in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1, in which he is portrayed as a Welshman and a more compassionate character. Pius Thicke P. Thick is first featured in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. He is the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the beginning of the book, when he is under the curse of Imperiale Corbanks, who uses his position to infiltrate the top ranks of the ministry. The thickness is described as a man with long hair and a beard who is mostly black but with a touch of gray, along with a large overhanging forehead and hanging eyes. Harry's immediate impression of a crab looking out from under a cliff. After the coup in which Skrimdjour was killed, the ministry is de facto under the control of Voldemort, who appoints Tolstoy as his puppet minister. Thick joins the ranks of the Death Eaters for the rest of the book and fights them at the Battle of Hogwarts, where he duels against Percy it's in a sea urchin). After the battle ended, the curse of the Imperius, which was entrusted to him, is broken. Kingsley Scheklebolt replaces him as interim (later permanent) minister of magic. Not much is known about the real nature of Thicknesse as it has been under Yaxley's control for almost the entire book. Guy Henry plays Tolstoy in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 and Part 2, in which he is portrayed as the Death Eater before Scrimjur's death. In Part 2, Thicke is killed by Voldemort. Dolores Ambridge Home article: Dolores Ambridge Dolores Jane Ambridge was a defense against dark arts teacher during the fifth year of Harry Potter, senior deputy minister of magic, and chief antagonist in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. She's a short, squat woman, described as resembling a large pale toad, with short, curly, mouse-brown hair. She speaks in a quiet, childish, high voice and loves kittens, chocolate cakes, cookies, tea and other related paraphernalia, decorating her surroundings in the same way. She tends to talk to people she feels her lesser in a very indulgent tone, as if they are simpletons or very young children. In addition to Voldemort, she is the only character in the series who has left a lasting scar on Harry's body. Percy Weasley Percy Ignatius Weasley is the third son of Arthur and Molly Weasley. In direct contrast to his younger (and older) brothers, he is adhering to the rules and is often strutted out of his love for power, although he has good intentions in his heart. When readers first meet Percy in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, he is the prefect of Gryffindor, and in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban he becomes the main boy, to the delight of his mother. In both of these circumstances, he becomes physically attached to his badge, wanting to polish it and wear it even when out of school. In Harry Potter and the Secret Room, Percy secretly has a girlfriend - the prefect of Ravenclaw Penelope Clearwater. An academically high-performing student, Percy received 12 OWLs and 12 NEWTs. When he graduated from school, this academic distinction plus his having worked as the main boy secured him a job in the ministry in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Its direct leader is Barty Crouch Sr.; Percy idolizes Mr. Crouch somewhat, but Crouch never seems to remember Percy's name, calling him Weatherby. When Crouch is ill, Percy replaces him as referee in the second task of the Triwizard tournament. He gave up his family time to get the best position of Assistant Minister of Magic. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Percy was promoted to Junior Assistant Minister Fudge. Since this is an unusually high-profile post for someone of Percy's age to hold, Arthur suspects that Percy's promotion has not been earned, but given to him to allow the ministry to better manipulate Weasley. Outraged and upused by this proposal, Percy argues fiercely with Arthur, which leads to the subsequent alienation of Percy from his family. Although Harry notes that he has always loved Percy's least Ron brothers, he is still shocked to hear about it. When Percy learns Ron has made a prefect, he sends him a letter of congratulations for following in his footsteps, and unsuccessfully urges Ron to sever ties with Harry (claiming Harry is an extreme danger to Ron's prefect status), and pay the loyalty of Ambridge and the ministry - going so far as to refer to her as an amazing woman, much disgusting Harry and Ron. Percy later makes an appearance in Harry Potter and the Prince-Pause, where he apparently saw the error of his ways and makes a clumsy visit to his family with new minister Rufus Scrimgeour during the Christmas holidays, although it later emerged that it was designed by Scrimgeour to talk to Harry alone. He later attends Dumbledore's funeral with ministry officials including Dolores Ambridge. In the climax of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Percy returns to his family and manages to pardon all of them, and eventually duels the new Minister of Magic and Voldemort puppet Pius Thicke at the Battle of Hogwarts. During a duel, Percy announces that he is retiring, the first joke he has made for years, to Fred's delight. During a duel with Percy, his brother Fred Wiesley is killed in an explosion, and Percy clings to the corpse and protects him from further damage. In the last part of the battle, he and his father work together to defeat Tolstoy. His final appearance in the epilogue book, at Kings Cross station, speaks loudly of broom rules. Percy plays in the film series. Other character Von Broderick Bode is an employee in the Department of Mysteries. He was placed under the Curse of the Imperius by Lucius Malfoy, who sought to receive a prophecy about Harry and Voldemort. Bode suffered spell damage from his attempt to steal the prophecy and was rushed to St. Mungo Hospital; He was subsequently strangled by the Pomek factory on Christmas Day to prevent him from revealing any information about the Death Eaters plot. Amelia Susan Bones Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. She is Aunt Susan Bone (a classmate of Harry's from Hufflepuff), and the sister of Edgar Bones (a member of the Order of the Phoenix killed by the Death Eaters during the first war). During Harry's trial in Book 5, Ms. Bones expressed admiration for Harry's ability to produce bodily Patronus at such a young age; her fair treatment of the court also helped lead to Harry's acquittal. Madame Bones, as it turned out, had been brutally murdered in the first chapter of book 6, sometime before his; say that the voldemor himself probably killed her, and that she staged a very tough fight in the process. Dumbledore called her a great witch in the fourth chapter of Harry Potter and the Potter Prince. She portrayed Sian Thomas in the film adaptation. Reginald Reg Cattermole works for magical service in the ministry. In the final book, Ron uses some of his hair to impersonate him and enter the ministry to steal the Slytherin medallion. His wife, a Muggle-born City of Cattermole, was questioned when Harry, Ron and Hermione stole the locket. Steffan Rhodri portrays him in the film adaptation of The Deathly Hallows. Dirk Cresswell Muggle was born, a member of the Slug Club during his time as a student at Hogwarts. He was Goblin's head of communications until Albert Runcorn exposed the falsification of a kind of tree and forced him to be sent to Azkaban. However, he escaped, but was eventually killed by his captors, along with Ted Tonks and Hornook Goblin. Amos Diggory Father Cedric Diggory. He works in the Department of Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. Unlike his son, who is rather modest, Amos constantly brags about his son's achievements and reminds Harry on every occasion that Cedric beat him on quidditch. In the film version of the Cup of Fire, it is more friendly and was portrayed by Jeff Rowle. Madame Edgecombe works in the Department of Magic Transport, the office of the Floo Network. She was helping Dolores Ambridge Of Hogwarts Police. She's Marietta Edgecombe's mother, Ravenclaw, who betrayed Dumbledore Ambridge's army. Mafalda Hopkirk works in the misuse of the Magic Office in the ministry, and is responsible for sending out warnings when the magic of minors is discovered. At the beginning of the fifth book and film, Harry gets Howler with a subpoena for the hearing, written and narrated by Hopkirk. Hermione uses some of her hair to impersonate her and enter the ministry, and gets closer to Ambridge before stealing the Slytherin medallion. Her voice is portrayed by Jessica Hines in the film version of the Order of the Phoenix, but in The Death of Death, she plays physically Sophie Thompson. Griselda Marchbanks Senior Witch, who previously served at Wizengamot and already worked for the Magic Examinations Authority during Dumbledore's time as a student, where she personally supervised his two exams and was very impressed with his abilities. Ms. Marchbanks remains an active supporter of Dumbledore, contrary to the ministry's attempts to discredit and arrest him, and resigns in protest against his treatment. Marchbanks personally examines Harry and some of his year's students as they sit behind their O.W.L.S. Bob Ogden Dumbledore uses one of Ogden's memoirs to show Harry von House at Gaunt, Voldemort's mother Ogden worked as a magical law enforcement officer and until his death was the head of the magic law enforcement unit. Tiberius Ogden Although never explicitly presented, Ogden is mentioned several times in the fifth instalment as a staunch ally of Dumbledore in the face of the director's growing unpopularity. As a result, charges (probably invented) have been brought against him, alleging that he was involved in the goblin riots. Member wizengamot until he resigns to show solidarity with Dumbledore. Perkins is a friend of Mr Weasley, who lends him and Weasley his tent during the World Cup of quidditch. Harry, Ron and Hermione use the same tent in the final book while searching for the Horcrutz. Albert Runcorn Although his devotion is never made explicit, it is implied that he is a supporter of the Death Eaters. In an interview with Arthur Weasley, he discovered a falsified genealogy for Dirk Cresswell. Harry uses some of his hair to impersonate him to enter the ministry to steal Slytherin's medallion. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, part one is played by David O'Hara. Newt Scamander is a retired department official who worked for the Department of Magical Creature Regulation and Control. He is the author of the tutorial Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. In the Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them he is played by Eddie Redmayne. Wilkie Twycross Ministry teacher who teaches sixth-year students how to apparatus; notable for its three Ds: determination, appointment and discussion. Because of the complexity of the phenomenon, the three Ds give it different nicknames from students such as dog breathing and manure-head. Admission Also: Harry Potter Politics Due to its portrayal of the bureaucratic Ministry of Magic and repressive measures taken by the ministry in later books (e.g., making a visit to Hogwarts mandatory and registering Muggles in the ministry), Rowling was asked if there was a parallel with Nazism. She replied that it wasn't entirely entirely this. I think you can see in the ministry even before he took over, there are parallels with the regimes we all know and love. Jennifer Barnett of People's Weekly World said that the reader is involved in the politics of the magical world - Educational decrees from a representative of the Ministry of Magic, similar to toad, high-ranking ties of war criminals from the last rise of Voldemort, prejudices against the dirty and half-blooded and offered connections to the world in which we live, with similarities and differences between the administrations of Faj and the administration. Julia Turner of Slate Magazine also interpreted Rowling's portrayal of the ministry as a critique of the Bush and Blair administrations, suggesting that the Security Department brochure resembles TIPS (Terrorism Information and Prevention System). University of Tennessee law professor Benjamin Barton notes that he considers the libertarian aspects of Harry Potter in his work Harry Potter and the semi-crazed bureaucracy published in the Michigan Law Review, saying that Rowling's caustic portrait of government is surprisingly sharp and effective. That's partly because her critics work on many levels: the functions of government, the structure of government, and the bureaucrats who run the show. All three elements work together to portray a ministry of magic run by self-serving bureaucrats seeking to increase and defend their power, often to the detriment of the public at large. In other words, Rowling creates a dream of a scientist of public interest, or a nightmare - a government. In popular culture, one of the most influential rock bands Wizard is named by the Ministry of Magic after the government structure in the series. The Ministry of Magic has made numerous performances, among the most notable of them taking place in Wrockstock. References: b Barton, Benjamin H. (2006).
