hey brother Kalu couch I know I know there is all sorts of really cool new content that's about to
come out but when new Harry Potter information is available directly from JK Rowling on Pottermore
about wizards in America I'm sorry but I just can't help talk about it merica a lot of the
new information that is posted in the articles is going to tied directly to the new movie fantastic
beasts and where to find them so today I am going to talk about everything you need to
know about american wizards don't know if I need to call spoilers here but if you haven't
read the articles yet I will leave a link in the description down below to Pottermore and you can
go and check them out either way I would highly recommend going and taking a look at them after
this video the first thing that we're going to learn is that wizards or naturally occurring
beings they don't stem from any particular part of the world or lineage and wizards were aware
of their kind in other parts of the world before non-magic folk even realized there
were other parts of the world focusing on America we learned that even Native Americans had wizards
but interestingly we learn from the article that they didn't use wands and instead focus on potions
plants and animals I love that Rowling included that difference in culture one of the first things
we see Harry do as a wizard is get his wand and an enormous amount of the seventh book focuses on
wands and wand boar so the fact that there's an entire magical culture that thrived without them
is awesome moving forward in history this more natural leaning magical culture didn't make things
easy for Europeans traveling to the new world this meant they had no infrastructure or wand
makers or schools well actually they did start a school called ilver Morni which I have to say it
sounds a lot cooler than Hogwarts krause merca sorry we never had Wizards before so exciting
I'm kind of concerned we're gonna ruin wizards and when is America ever ruined anything in any case
the lack of formal governance in America meant there weren't really any laws which led to the
sour arrests we're rolling this is like Hermione all over again why can't words be easy to say did
anyone else say her Moines that's who she was to us for the first three books Scott were kind of
like a self-appointed Wizarding police but with no laws to actually enforce so that may have had
good intentions but people with power and nobody to keep them in check means absolute power and as
always absolute power corrupts absolutely which leads us to the Salem witch trials the way I love
how she is working actual historical events into the wizarding past like it's all real like I just
haven't received my Hogwarts letter yet well I guess sorry bill burr morning I wonder will use
owls in America too I mean what else can be used Eagles grizzly Eagles I think you see where I'm
going with this don't disappoint me fantastic beasts make the grizzly Eagle shark real the
people who know what I'm talking about Phil and the people who don't in the towel section the
scours became so corrupt that they were actually hunting down their own kind during the Salem witch
trials which finally led to a Wizarding governing body the magical Congress of the United States of
America or makuu's ooh awesome named becca-boo cubes up quickly hunted down the scours and
executed them and or sent them into hiding where they began to despise the rest of the Wizarding
World to the point where they were actively trying to breed the magic out of themselves
I continue to teach their descendants that magic was very real and it should be exterminated to me
the sour sound like a big and actually dangerous group of Vernon Dursleys this means that muggles
in America or as US Americans refer to them as no Maja's man I really feel like we lost the
battle on that phrasing way better overseas and then no managers work harder to fool which to me
means you couldn't get away with driving a a magical triple decker purple bus through the
streets of New York the same way you could the streets of London think that your are
no Maja's are better than your muggles even if they have a much dumber name miss amantha there
was a greater need for separation between magic and non-magic folk in order to maintain secrecy
and all of this came to a head when a girl named Dorcas spilled the beans like come on I think we
all kind of saw that coming what kind of name is Dorcas can even blame her long story short Dorcas
fell in love with the descendant of a scour and reveal the locations of makuu's and over morning
and I haven't learned this many new words in a single day since first grade Sen scour attended
an attack on the Wizarding community and although he failed he did manage to bring a lot of negative
attention to the Wizarding World even handing her wand over to newspapers this was maybe the
most interesting part of the whole article it said that when the no Maja's waved the wand it kicked
like a mule other means the wand fought its user or cast some kind of painful spell but either way
my assumption would be that when a Nomad waved a wand it would be about the equivalent of waving a
stick are they actually able to summon cut some kind of magic from it does this mean I could be
a wizard seriously where's my Eagle it's kind of a small detail in the article but I could totally
see it playing into the movie as in some kind of Scour or nomads gets ahold of a wand and uses it
in some way dorka says mishap leaves the makuu's a--to introducing a full-blown segregation between
no-match people and the wizarding people which is going to be the state of america when newt arrives
in the 1920s excuse how even though america seems to have kind of sidestepped that whole blood
purity issue that Voldemort was so obsessed with they still found a way to drive a wedge between
Wizarding and non magic people so based on what we know now my prediction is that newt is going
to be coming from a place Europe where muggle wizard relationships are okay and as a result
he's going to be a little too trusting of the no-match people and end up being Dorcas i scoured
ascendant and causing a problem with Bhima Cuza yep that's a real sentence I just said also there
will be fantastic beasts I'm personally hoping for a blast ended screwed Anna girl a shark burger for
my question of the day are you excited for this movie and what fantastic beasts do you hope to see
and if you could create your own fantastic beast what would it be leave it in the towel section
down below great news there will be another article being dropped on Pottermore tomorrow and
today we have barely scratched the surface of the information you can pull from these articles so I
absolutely recommend you go and check the maps and if you would like more Harry Potter action
from us I made a video a little while back about how Harry ruined the Dursleys lives you can click
that right here but J that is everything that I've got for you today man I will see you on Tuesday
