Harry Potter Morning Light

The Bay of Kotor is long and winding, 32 kilometers deep inland. It consists of four main bays connected by a narrow passage.

The bay is flanked by the Orian Mountains, which are hot in summer and rainy in other seasons. On the hillside where the mountains and the sea meet, there are villages full of Mediterranean style, which look peaceful and beautiful.

The "witches" were escorted to a ship and let them drift downstream. The ship was old and the bottom was deliberately pierced. When they arrived at the bay, the ship had sunk more than half. Except for a few people who insisted on not getting off the ship, the younger ones had already swam and tried to swim to a safe place.

The appearance of the French warship was completely beyond their expectations. The small boat that was supposed to pick up the witches who were swimming immediately turned around and rowed into the bay after hearing the warning from the mountain. It was easier to find the landing point with them "leading the way". Some people hid in the fortress built in the Middle Ages.

The locals reacted in this way not only because the French raid was unexpected, but also because the trade in the eastern Mediterranean had long been declining. Compared with the threats at sea, the threats on land were more worthy of vigilance.

After the outbreak of the Russo-Turkish War in 1787, Kara Muhammad drove away the Ottoman Sultan. He not only established an independent regime in Shkodra, but also tried to further expand the territory of the Pasha region, which led to the Ottoman Empire launching a large-scale military expedition against Kara Muhammad again in 1791.

This action still ended in the failure of the Ottoman Empire. Kara Muhammad took the opportunity to expand his territory to Montenegro, and the Montenegrins resisted.

Almost at the same time, a large Pasha district centered on the city of Yanina was established in southern Albania. Ali Pasha, who ruled Egypt in Georgiana's memory, is still in Albania and is the local Pasha. He also took advantage of the competition between the Turks and Russia and Austria to expand his territory. When the Sultan got rid of the war with Austria and Russia in 1792, Ali Pasha cooperated with the Sultan to attack Kara Muhammad of Shkoder.

But when Napoleon landed in Egypt and marched towards Jerusalem, the Sultan had to abandon Albania. Then Ali Pasha began his own march and eventually became a "neighbor" with the French who occupied Corfu.

Napoleon intended to seize Egypt from Turkey, so he tried to create new troubles for Istanbul in the Balkans. He not only encouraged Ali Pasha to revolt, but also provided weapons, ammunition, and military instructors.

But Ali Pasha did not do what Napoleon said. On the contrary, when Turkey, Britain and Russia formed an anti-French alliance, Ali began military operations against the French and captured some cities on the Ionian Sea coast.

In 1799, the Ionian Islands passed to Russia. Despite Ali's efforts, he still failed to gain the friendship of the Russians. Alexander drove out all the Turks in the Danube region and appointed Greeks and Armenians as officials.

Not only that, the Russians also instigated the rulers of Yanina to oppose Ali Pasha and the Christian Surets, a militant ethnic group among the free mountain peoples of Albania. However, Ali Pasha overcame these difficulties and launched a military expedition against the Surets in 1799, and he besieged the Surets for four years.

When the French navy arrived in Corfu, Ali Pasha just accepted the surrender of the Surets, and he was unwilling to send the prisoners to the Russians in Corfu. The Russians used this as an excuse to start a war with Ali Pasha again, and perhaps also intended to expand to the shore after occupying Corfu.

Then the French occupied Corfu "without bloodshed".

Of course, there needs to be a reason to start a war, even Attila had an excuse to marry a princess.

Grotius divided wars into public wars and private wars. In the late Middle Ages, kings fought private wars, which not only disrupted social order, but also required the collection of taxes and the recruitment of troops. The reason for launching a war was often "revenge".

"Blood revenge" is an ancient system. Pomona used to think that Arianna's father's revenge for his daughter was forgivable, and of course she thinks so now. In short, revenge is a justifiable crime and is generally accepted as a legitimate concept.

One of Grotius's explanations of public war is that "public war is sometimes caused by the lack of judicial relief." If a person is "unjustly punished" before waiting for the legal authorization to implement "just punishment", there may be a justification for launching a war.

For example, in a subway station in New York, Macusa eliminated Credence, a silent man in the 20th century.

Grindelwald asked loudly, "Who does that law protect? Is it us?"

First of all, before the terrorist incidents in New York, Macusa had passed a law that allowed magical animals to be hunted, provided that they violated the international law of secrecy and appeared in front of Muggles.

Secondly, it is about the distinction between humans and animals.

In French civil law, the conditions for biological people to become legal persons have changed. The standard of "qualified judgment" is no longer a specific identity of a person, but an ethical value determined by human reason.

If Credence is in his form before he becomes an Obscurus, he is just a boy who needs protection. However, after he becomes an Obscurus, he is no longer a human being, both in appearance and according to his actions.

The history of the magic world about the difference between humans and animals does not need to be reviewed, and then back to the question of why Credence was parasitized by the Obscurus. He was adopted by the Second Salem.

The Second Salem wanted to expose the existence of the magic world not to let everyone appreciate the beauty brought by magic and magical animals. When they handed out flyers and gave speeches at the door of the bank, no one paid attention. Who would believe in magic except crazy people?

This was still during the Prohibition period before the Great Depression. Ordinary citizens thought that the explosions were caused by gas. Who knew that it was not caused by the mafia grabbing territory?

In that period when everyone was busy with luxury, who would care about how a group of orphans lived?

Public wars are sometimes caused by the lack of judicial relief.

Compared with the number of Muggles participating in the two world wars, the number of people in the wizard war was pitifully small, but the proportion was similar.

Grindelwald's speech to launch the war in Europe was not because of Credence. He thought Credence was dead. Credence appeared after his speech at Père Lachaise Cemetery.

Credence was "unjustly punished" in a private charity, so why did his adoptive mother beat him?

As an Auror, Tina could not do anything to Credence's adoptive mother, even if she felt that she was carrying out a "just punishment".

There were 15 survivors of the Raft of the Medusa, and the number of "witches" who fell into the water was more than twice their number, but they were all rescued.

Cicero said that there is only one excuse for going to war, that is, through war we can live in an undamaged peaceful environment.

Thomas Aquinas said: War is indeed for the sake of peace, but it is for the sake of a just peace, not an evil peace.

Georgiana had never met those "witches" before, and she couldn't even understand what they said, but she still wrote about them in the letter reporting the war.

She admitted that she was not rational enough, and perhaps she should think about it for a while. The scene when the Titanic sank was projected on the screen through the movie, and she didn't feel cold, but was moved by the love between Rose and Jack.

But just now in that room, she felt extremely cold, as if the cold sea water was stinging her skin.

Napoleon said that peace is a struggle, and the conditions of peace determine everything, just like a marriage based on voluntary consent.

The issue of Malta cannot be negotiated just like the issue of having children. If one party wants it and the other party does not cooperate, then they can only divorce. In addition to the differences in the couple's concepts, they also have to face the comments of the people around them.

Unless one party is willing to compromise.

She closed her eyes and sighed.

Severus did not want children, and his godson followed suit. He did not care that the Malfoy family had no descendants, let alone bringing the blood curse on Astoria into the pure-blood family.

She thought of Evangeline, Queen Victoria, hemophilia, the Tsar, and the demon monk Rasputin.

Excessive involvement of wizards in the Muggle War will bring misfortune, go to Merlin.

If only Slytherin did not prohibit the descendants of Veela from entering magic schools, she could find an ordinary man to marry and live a simple life like Fleur Delacour.

The little mermaid sacrificed her singing voice to get legs.

She also used other things to exchange for the opportunity to study, but wisdom was like the little mermaid's legs, and every step was painful.

"Fortunately, this is all a dream."

She thought with some sly joy that no one would know what happened in the dream.

It was a blessing in disguise.
