Harry Potter Morning Light

Because the Twelve Trees of Dorcas revealed a lot of information about the wizarding world, it has been illegal for wizards and Muggles to marry since then.

However, the United States is not the first country to propose this bill. As early as 1733, the British Minister of Magic Perseus Parkinson had already proposed this bill, but the bill was not passed. Derek's great-great-great-grandfather becomes the new Minister for Magic.

In the 17th century, Europe immigrated to the Americas, making the conflict between the magic and non-magic worlds less acute in Europe, but it intensified rapidly in the Americas, especially the purgers, who multiplied at the end of the 17th century. After the Salem incident, the Magical Congress of America Formed, they began arresting, trying, and executing Scavengers for murder, human trafficking, and torture. That is to say, the Magic Congress of America is not the kind of place to use Azkaban as a last resort, but even so, there are still some notorious scavengers who escaped the pursuit, they formed families with No-Maj, and disappeared among the crowd.

They were supposed to be alive by 1733, but they were still mostly active in the Americas, and it wasn't the issue of intermarriage that was so overwhelming for European wizards.

First of all, we must understand the British civil service system. It was a major reform after the Crimean War. Before that, the British Prime Minister would take a group of officials to take office. After the reform, their duty was to implement the policies of the government at that time and not to participate in political party activities. Before the reform, their appointments were all under the responsibility of the prime minister. That is to say, if the prime minister changed, a large number of them also Will change accordingly. As long as you have seen the mountain-like documents of the administrative department, you will know how unreasonable this system is. It takes time to become familiar with these affairs and the relationship among them. The longer it is, the civil servants gradually become an important part of the state institutions, and it has the title of "the never-changing behind-the-scenes government".

That is to say, the two parties in the foreground take turns singing, and the backstage never changes, but people like Malfoy will not have much interest in "administration". The vocation of the nobility is to manage the country. Due to the strict screening of voter qualifications by the electoral law, the number of qualified voters is pitifully small. Even the House of Commons, known as the "House of Commons", accounted for 22% of the members of the nobility in 1800. If the nobility There will be more if our distant relatives are also included. As a result, many seats in the Congress are controlled by big landowners and nobles. If the Malfoy family does not abide by the International Statute of Secrecy, they are also one of these people who control the seats.

The number of seats affects the passage of the bill, and the use of magic to pass the "Chimney Act" like David Porter is also a violation of the International Statute of Secrecy. But the point here is that the wizarding society is relatively isolated from the Muggle society. If the Malfoy family chooses the wizarding world, then they have to give up the social life of the Muggle world. All contacts with the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister, etc., will instead keep them away from the new core of power in the wizarding world.

This "cut off" is only superficial, and despite their vehement denials that they ever had close relationships with certain people, wizarding historians can produce a stack of evidence to the contrary.

Septimus Malfoy's reasons for objecting to cooperation are various, but almost all of them are related to the Muggle world, and it is impossible to get any reliable news from him.

When it was time for the intermission, they had to return to their respective boxes. Before leaving, Georgiana stopped Rufkin, and Stamp and Malfoy left separately, without walking "arm in arm".

"What happened?" Georgiana asked Rufkin. "How did Stamp's attitude change so much?"

"You heard about the cooperation..."

"I want to know the real situation, don't use this to perfuse me." Georgiana interrupted Lufkin.

The female minister of magic did not speak immediately.

"Something bad happened?" Georgiana asked.

"We've had a tip," Rufkin concluded. "There's a group of people who will attack before Christmas."

"People from the wizarding world?"

"No... I can't tell you any more," Rufkin said. "Excuse me."

After she finished speaking, she walked away quickly.

Georgiana did not delay either, and found Du Roc again, who was standing at the door of her box.

"What do you know about the Christmas attacks?" she asked straight to the point.

Du Roc smiled strangely, "You also think France is behind the scenes?"

"I think what we're talking about may be the same thing, but I don't know what happened." Georgiana said confusedly, "The atmosphere in the meeting just now was too weird."

Di Roc pondered for a moment, then said.

Socks were originally woven one by one, and weaving this kind of socks required a high level of craftsmanship, but someone invented a sock that cut the entire sock material with scissors and sewed it with a needle, so that it can be sold in the market. sold out. It’s just that this kind of socks is of rough quality, but it requires less labor, is cheap and is easy to make, so it quickly flooded the market, and a large number of hosiery workers were squeezed out or forced to lower their wages.

Hosiery workers repeatedly negotiated with their employers and went to Parliament to ask that the "cut socks" be banned, but with no response, they stopped working and established links with "other" organisations.

This organization is called "the black lantern" (the black lantern), and the organization believes in the god of death. Participants are required to take an oath in front of the god of death to strictly keep secrets and never defect. Once the secrets of the organization are leaked, they will accept death sanctions. Every time the organization held a meeting in the suburbs far away from the city at midnight on Friday night, some agents tried to pretend to be members to attend the meeting, but they were quickly discovered, but many places including Leeds, London, Manchester, etc. Alarm - "By Christmas they'll be all over the place, and some night they'll be all over the place at the same time".

This aroused the suspicion of the British authorities, thinking that France or the Jacobins who launched the "Bread and Blood" movement were behind the scenes, so Georgiana understood why Stamp and Malfoy refused to send people from France to investigate the "common Vision" organization.

The secret talks between Addington and Sir Baring were mainly about the acquisition of Louisiana. With enough land, American farmers could provide enough cheap cotton as raw materials for British cotton mills, which would benefit British manufacturing and export companies. . France is now neither selling Louisiana nor opening the market. Such a peace is laborious and unprofitable. Cities such as Birmingham have no seats, although steel is currently duty-free.

Under the aristocracy, the vast majority of ministers of colonial affairs were under their shadow, especially in the army, and fighting in the army had always been the cause of the British aristocracy. The navy expanded nearly fivefold, taking sailors from American merchant ships and officers from landed aristocracy.

The best way is to strangle the British navy before it becomes a monster, but neither France nor Spain, the former empire where the sun never sets, has a good chance of winning. Based on the history she knew, after the Battle of Trafalgar, the status of British maritime supremacy was confirmed, and then Britain would enter a period of rapid growth until the Victorian era.

Later, Ottaline Gamper organized a Muggle investigative committee and conducted some kind of intelligence test. They believed that Muggle intelligence seemed to be much greater than wizards thought.

It was almost at his time that the civil service system was preparing for reform to solve the problems of selling officials and nobles and administrative inefficiency, all of which were caused by the disastrous defeat of the Crimean War, which triggered domestic corruption and Incompetent slams.

Merely exposing Prime Minister Addington for taking bribes in the Louisiana Takeover was not enough, at best, it was Addington's resignation. She has no personal grievances with him personally, and she has no interest in sending him to prison, and now she is thinking about a question, if she can't change anything, what's the point of just seeing the truth?

Since it was meaningless, why did she search for it?

Fortunately, she is a magical creature, and she looks very young when she is old. Muggle women should marry themselves while they are still in the interest of others, otherwise they will be like Charlotte in "Pride and Prejudice" up.

She has time to read only when she is not married. After she is married and has children, endless housework and various chores will occupy her time. She has no time to read and understand these things.

That's the difference between those who have a family and those who don't. Family members aren't what you think they are sometimes, Albus, and even Arianna gets rebellious one day and runs off with a bad boy on a motorcycle.

You want wool socks because you don't have them, and those who wear wool socks want what you probably have.

There was applause all around, and Georgiana applauded along with the others, not thinking about the performance at all.

She didn't leave the theater, but she remembered the cold outside. Was all that really an illusion?
