Chapter 3

The boy took a breath and started" The wizarding world also referred to as the magical community, is the society in which wizards and witches live and interact separately from the Muggle society. The two communities are kept separate through the use of charms, spells, and secrecy. Wizards are forbidden to reveal anything about magic to Muggle society due to the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy. Each country has a form of wizarding government to oversee magical affairs in their territories, such as a Ministry of Magic or a Council of Magic. The International Confederation of Wizards serves as a wizarding intergovernmental organization. Our sociality is separated into two categories humans and 'Half-breed' is a term given to humans with at least one non-human parent, although those with more distant non-human ancestry are also referred to as half-breed. 'Half-breed' is an offensive term rather than the proper, term, as it used mostly as an insult. So, no one of you should use it." he said it with such passion that they could see that that term was very hard for him.

"Why is that term so hard for you?" asked Dudley that the look was very familiar to him for some reason

"Because one of my aunts is one of them so are all three of her children as was my father's uncle and they have suffered a lot because of that term. There is a great deal of prejudice against half-breeds in the wizarding world, which also tends to discriminate against non-human beings in general. During these years it has become easier for them but it still hard."

"Its like prejudice of people from a different place or skin color." said one of the siblings getting a nod.

"Trell us a bit more about your society?" said one of the fathers

"The society of the wizarding world is centered around two facts: that the members can use magic due to inborn capabilities to do otherwise impossible things, and that it is not possible for Muggle society to coexist peaceably alongside wizarding society and therefore it is kept secret."

The muggles looked a bit offended so the young, man said" You have to understand Muggles have tried to kill many of us and succeeded quite a few times and we had to protect yourself." they understood they would do anything to protect their children too.

"Our society is separated into five categories we have muggles most of whom don't know we exist, Muggle-borns children born with magic to two Muggle parents, Half-bloods wizards with parents or grandparents split between Muggles and wizards, most of our society is Half-blood, Pure-bloods are wizards and witches without known Muggles or Muggle-borns on their family tree through someone can be considered a pureblood if he/she hadn't had a Muggle in his line in the last three generations and last but not least there are Squibs who are individuals from wizarding families but have no magic themselves."

"So, squibs are the opposite of Muggle-borns?" asked Violet getting a nod from her(unknown)second cousin

"What are you?" Asked Natalie

"I am a Half-blood."

"How do you get to have had a half-blood child?"

"Well to be a half-blood you have to have other a Magical and Squib & Muggle parents that include a Muggleborn parent too in the first category, a Pureblood and half-blood & Muggle-born parents, two half-blood parents and a Muggle or Muggle-born grandparent. I am in the last category my mother's family are purebloods while the family of my paternal grandfather had been purebloods until my father was born because my grandmother was a Muggleborn. Aunt Hannah, over there is a half-blood too while Professor Longbottom is a pureblood."

"How do they keep the pureblood status if most of your society is half-blood?" asked a parent

"Inbreeding right?" asked another" I am a doctor and that's the only way."

"Yes, almost every pureblood family is related to each other one way or another through most of them have died out."

"What happened to the war?" asked Dudley suddenly he knew there had been a war his cousin had told him and he didn't want his daughter to be in the middle of one

"Oh, right Uncle Nev told me that you had an aunt who was a witch so it understandable you would know about the war." he stooped there was another reason why he knew that but he didn't want them to know it." The war ended twenty-one years ago." he looks sad

"Why are you sad shouldn't you be happy at that?" asked Carter

"Yes, I am but my father lost his entire family his godfather, Uncle, and friends the war destroyed many families mine most of all. There are great people I consider family that I can never meet because they are dead. But let's continue with your interdiction to the wizarding world." he said his smile a bit sadder right now so no one pressed the issue.

Dudley was was slightly happy the war was done maybe his cousin was ok.

"Many pureblood families are very judgmental at the mixture of blood and they look down on by them but that had changed over time and will change even furthermore." he nodded to himself pretty sure about that.

"What are some of the creatures that witches and wizards are prejudiced of?" asked Michael he had two mothers and knew how judgmental people could be he also wanted to ask what the magical world thought of the same-sex relationship.

"Well, there are Werewolves, Giants, House-elves, Veela and Goblins through there are quite a few others that you will learn in school more about them so I will not go into details. As for the relationship with the muggles, most things of magical nature are hidden from them. However, to wizards, the Muggle world is also very mysterious especially to my grandfather who likes Muggle things a lot, we always give him things like that as a present." he got a laugh to form everyone the young man was extremely charismatic and fun everyone seemed to like him in seconds" Through even the most educated Wizards in muggle society tend to blunder attempts to disguise themselves as Muggles when they venture into Muggle society, for example, wearing clothing meant for the opposite sex, or clothes that definitely, don't fit together at all. It's easy to tell a wizard in the muggle world just by that actually."

"But your clothes are really good." Harper looking at him again undressing him with her eyes every female there and a few males agreed with her.

"Yes, but I have a muggle aunt and a Muggleborn aunt." he looked down on his clothes and said," Through the clothes I usually wear is inspired by my namesake actually this jacket belonged to him years ago and he knows quite a lot about the Muggle world more than most actually."

"What about muggle Technology?" asked Elijah Patterson

James Sirius chuckled and said" Muggle technology, such as the telephone or revolver, are foreign and obscure to most wizards. In Hogwarts, you can't use anything that works with electricity mostly because that and magic don't work well together. Though there is a class offered at Hogwarts, the subject is considered a waste of time to some mostly by Purebloods and those who don't want to learn, I believe there are some like that in the Muggle-world too."

"Is there a Muggle who isn't related to the Wizarding world that knows the existence of the wizarding world?" asked Liam

"Yes The only known Muggle without wizards in his/her family that knows of the wizarding world is the Prime Minister of The The United Kingdom in this country also the Prime Ministers, Presidents and/or Royalty but t they are not allowed to say anything about us." the children were learning to him very carefully and not meeting one thing.

The boy continued with the information trying to cover everything they could" The most important fact is that Magic cannot be performed by anyone, but only by those with inborn abilities carried by genetics. Thus, the Muggles are subjugated because they lack magical abilities. But not all wizards descend exclusively from other wizards; Many wizards, like my father, the Headmistress or one of my grandfather's best friends are born half-blood, having at least one of their parents or grandparents is either a Muggle or Muggle-born and that at least one of their parents or grandparents is magical. Some, such as my aunt or my parental grandmother who, are born to both Muggle parents. And the fact that you all are Muggleborn doesn't mean you won't be great wizards and witches blood status doesn't affect that but blood status is an important class indicator in the wizarding world. Besides blood status, other distinguishable societal factors call much less attention. Like Money, through of ofc course, there are cases, of rich wizards looking down to wizards with less money but it's not as important as blood status. Through Gender, prejudice Is non-existent in the wizarding society, as both males and females hold equally important posts, including those of professor, headmaster/headmistress, writer and even the post of Minister for Magic, which is the most important to the British wizarding community. There also have less discrimination and prejudice in British and global Wizarding society based on sexual orientation two males and two females could get married quite easily and not be looked down upon. Actually, two males and two females can have a child who shares both of their DNA and is the child of both of them. There also isn't any racial prejudice actually wizards don't even recognize different races.

"What about Religion?" asked one of the mothers

"Wizards actually practice all manner of faiths and religions. Christmas and Easter are celebrated communally, though the celebrations mainly cover the non-religious portions of the holidays. Witches and wizards can be members of any faith, and there are no specifically wizarding religions." the mother in question nodded

"What about Illnesses and disabilities?" asked the mother who wanted to know if there were doctors in the Wizarding World

"Well, Wizards have the power to correct or override 'mundane' nature, but not 'magical' nature. Therefore, a wizard could catch anything a Muggle might catch, but they can cure all of it, they can also comfortably survive a scorpion sting that might kill a Muggle, whereas they might die if bitten by a Venomous Tentacula which is a magical animal. Similarly, bones were broken in non-magical accidents such as falls or fist fights can be mended by magic, but the consequences of curses or backfiring magic could be serious, permanent or life-threatening. So, while wizards have an enviable head start over Muggles in dealing with the flu, and all manner of serious injuries, they have to deal with problems that Muggles never face. Not only is the Muggle world free of such perils as Devil's Snare and Blast-Ended Skrewts, the Statute of Secrecy has also kept Muggles free from contact with any wizard who could pass on Dragon Pox" the looks he got he said" as the name implies, the illness was originally contracted by wizards working closely with Peruvian Vipertooths) or Spattergroit that are kind of animals only found in the wizarding world. There is loss Lycanthropy, which causes a person to become a werewolf is a highly stigmatized illness. Those who have been affected have often been shunned and hated."

"Kind of like AIDS?" asked Nora Scott

"I don't know what that is it doesn't exist here but I guess." answered the boy" So now we will talk about the Government?" everyone nodded their heads
