Overview
The Ministry is also responsible for keeping magical secrecy from the non-magical community. Any violation of this law will attract severe penalties. At the core of the Ministry is the Minister for Magic, an appointed official who directs operations and represents the interests of the British wizarding community.
Even the ministry has its dark side. It is not immune to corruption, abuse of power, and the effects of dark wizards and witches who manipulate their roles for their own selfish interests. Despite these challenges, the Ministry is a symbol of order, justice, and tradition in the wizarding world. Its potential for good or evil depends entirely on those who wield its power.
History
In the first year, the ministry faced great challenges. The first was the reluctance of wizarding Britain to accept his rule, as they were used to living freely without fear of Muggles. However, heavy fines and prison sentences gradually ensured compliance. The Ministry had only four departments at the initial stage. However, the aftermath of the Goblin Rebellion led to its expansion, adding departments such as the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, which oversees wizarding laws, and the mislabeled Muggle Object Abuse Office.
The growth of the ministry was not without struggles. One of the darkest hours came under Voldemort when she became a puppet government under his control. However, after the Battle of Hogwarts, she regained her independence. Today, it remains the central institution in the wizarding world for magical challenges and discoveries. His feats are enormous, from issuing magical passports to conducting the Wikengamoto trials. Her story is a testament to her resilience against adversity and dedication to serving wizards. This legacy continues to support the foundations of magic and rule the magical realm from the shadows, often overlooked but always necessary.
