Hey everyone welcome back to Harry Potter folklore.
You’ll have already correctly guessed by the title of todays video, that we are going
to look at the possible scenario of what would have happened if the death eaters refused
to re-join voldemort following the dark lords return.
Now many of you know, voldemort isn’t exactly the nicest or kindest or decent wizard around,
he actually took pleasure in inflicting pain and misery upon people but what if the death
eaters just outright refused to re enter his service?
What if some of them wanted to and some of them didn’t?
What if the current climate of the wizarding world was a lot more bearable than a world
under his control?
Let’s jump straight in and find out in todays video.
So Voldemort returns to power, he’s reborn and all that, he summons his death eaters
to the graveyard as he did but senses an unease, a rather tense atmosphere, a sense of uncertainty
amongst them all.
After all, he’s been gone for 13 years, people have moved on, the world moved on,
the death eaters moved on.
They’re in their 30s now, have families and or most of them are settled.
They don’t really have the energy to throw themselves into another war, especially after
the ramifications of their defeat in the last wizarding war.
So they refuse to re-join him.
What’s happens then?
Well for starters, the situation could have had several potential outcomes.
Firstly, Voldemort would likely have been enraged and possibly resorted to violence
to punish his disloyal followers.
Don’t forget what he said would happen to those who didnt answer his call to the graveyard.
Maybe he would have made an example of Crabbe or McNair.
Anyway I think this could have created a power vacuum within the ranks of the Death Eaters,
leading to infighting and divisions within the organization.
Additionally, the refusal of the Death Eaters to rejoin Voldemort could have weakened the
power and influence of the Dark Lord.
Without his loyal followers, Voldemort would have found it harder to carry out his plans
and maintain control over the wizarding world.
He hadn’t even regained full power at this point.
It could have provided an opportunity for the opposition, such as the Order of the Phoenix,
to challenge and defeat the dark lord once and for all.
However, it's also possible that the Death Eaters could have regrouped and formed their
own organization, separate from Voldemort, which could have led to a splintering of the
Dark Lord's forces, and potentially even to rival factions vying for power and control.
The death eaters refusal would have cast doubt overall voldemort’s commanding authority
and have people question if he was as dangerous as it was once let to believe.
It's likely that the Dark Lord would have been forced to reassess his strategy and tactics.
He may have had to recruit new followers or find new ways to exert his power and control.
This could have led to increased violence and unrest in the wizarding world, as Voldemort
sought to assert his dominance and stamp out any opposition.The refusal of the Death Eaters
to rejoin Voldemort could also have had far-reaching implications for the larger wizarding community.
With the Dark Lord weakened, and a current split in his forces who would start their
own dark organisations as I mentioned, the wizarding world would have been thrown into
turmoil, with many innocent lives caught in the crossfire.
On the other hand, This was the perfect opportunity for The Order of the Phoenix, for example,
to step in to fill the void left by the Death Eaters, strengthening their position and increasing
their influence, just as they did at the end of the last war.
This could have led to a more peaceful and stable wizarding world, with the forces of
good finally prevailing over the forces of evil.
The outcome would have depended on the actions of the various players involved and the choices
they made in the aftermath of the Death Eaters' refusal.
Furthermore, it would have also led to increased scrutiny of the wizarding world by the Muggle
community.
The Muggles, who were already aware of the existence of magic and the wizarding world
and even voldemort would have been shocked and frightened by the appearance of dark wizards
and the outbreak of violence that would spill over into their world.
This could have led to increased efforts by Muggle authorities to monitor and control
the wizarding world, and potentially even to attempts to eradicate magic altogether,
which they had the technology to do don’t forget.
The muggles could wipe out wizardkind with a single act.
Gellert grindelwald showed those who attended his gathering in Paris, just how powerful
the muggle world was by showing the atrocities of war.
In addition I’d go further and say it could have also had a profound impact on the relationships
between the different wizarding communities, especially if these split dark organisations
wanted to make their own challenge on all of Britain as a whole, not just the magical
sector The Muggle community, already wary of the wizarding world, would have been even
more suspicious and fearful of the magic users, leading to continued tension and conflict.So
yeah the strained the relationships between the two communities, could lead to an all
out war and that’s without Britain looking for additional assistance from its allies.
Then we have the the international wizarding community, which was already aware of the
Dark Lord's return.
International communities would have been shocked by the appearance of dark wizards
and the outbreak of violence.
This could have led to increased efforts by the international wizarding community to monitor
and control the wizarding world of Britain, and creating a fail safe plan if order could
not be restored.
Then we have the impact on the political and social structure of the magical world.
The Ministry of Magic, which was responsible for regulating and governing the wizarding
community, would have been forced to reassess its role and responsibilities in light of
the changing circumstances.
The Ministry may have had to increase its efforts to maintain order and control, potentially
even resorting to oppressive measures to stamp out dissent.
The aurors would have had all limits upon dark magic lifted, meaning the unforgivable
curses were legal again.
What I’m sure of is the fact that the former death eaters, or members of their own smaller
dark organisations would have been stamped out as they didnt have strength in numbers
and voldemort would have sunk back into the shadows to bide his time for several years
before mounting another attack.
After their victory the ministry of magic itself would have been forced to examine its
values and beliefs.
With the Dark Lord and his followers no longer a threat, the wizarding community would have
been forced to confront the reality of their actions and the harm they had caused.
This could have led to increased efforts to promote peace, tolerance, and understanding,
or it could have led to an additional separation of the community along ideological lines.
The ministry, in an effort to better prepare its future graduates for the world they may
face one day, would take a new stance on the education and training of young witches and
wizards.
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, among others, could have reassessed their
curriculums and teaching methods, potentially even incorporating lessons on the dangers
of the Dark Arts and the importance of peace and understanding, while emphasising the importance
to learn these dark spells in order to have a better knowledge to defend against them.
However, pureblood ideology would have still remained a controversial issue with the various
wizarding families and factions now seizing the opportunity to assert their own power
and influence.
This could have led to increased competition and conflict among the various groups, potentially
even leading to the formation of new alliances and the fragmentation of old ones.
However with that being said, the community would have been forced to confront its own
prejudice and discrimination The wizarding community would have had the opportunity to
examine its own biases and prejudices, such as those against Muggle-borns and half-bloods.
This could have led to increased efforts to promote equality and inclusiveness, or it
could have led to increased division and hostility.The economy would have also flourished now that
the death eaters were vanquished.
Many wizarding businesses and industries, such as the wizarding shops and the production
of magical artifacts, would have had the opportunity to thrive.
This could have led to increased prosperity and growth in the wizarding economy, or it
could have led to increased competition and even price manipulation.
Maybe a bit of both.
In conclusion, the refusal of the Death Eaters to rejoin Voldemort would have had a profound
impact on the wizarding world, potentially leading to a shift in the balance of power
among the wizarding families and factions, a change in the wizarding economy, and a confrontation
of prejudice and discrimination.
The outcome would have depended on the actions of the various players involved and the choices
they made in the aftermath of the Death Eaters' refusal.
There you have it everyone, thats my take on what would happen if The death eaters refused
to rejoin voldmeort on his return to power.
