[Harry Potter Official Club] Re: "What If" Question

Hey there I tend to agree with Maria the only other thing I would have to add is that we have to remember that voldemort killed for fun so he would have no problem killing muggles to get what he wanted, if he had enough death eaters to take over England Scotland Wales and Ireland then he would have a pretty good start and also we have to take into account how other societies would see him would they fear him on his reputation or would the wizards of the other continent see him as a magical Hitler and try to take him down there are just so many dynamics to this kind of conversation that needs to be taken into account but I do think that either way the Order of the phoenix would grow and extend their arms to good wizards and witches who would fight to take down voldemort, good question though I must say it got me thinking

Well, i have say it's possible, but not probable. But they'd have
to take over all 6.6 billion of us! That's going to take awhile, a
lot of patience and plenty of strategy. There are a few ways
the 'wixards' can go about it. Either take Muggles by force and
intimidation, or do a whole political propaganda thing; of course, i
don't really think the whole political thing will work very well.
Who is to say Muggles will accept Wizards? Muggles will probably be
afraid of magic and unwilling to accept wizards. Heck, we'd be more
likely to experiment on them in some secret lab set up by the
government than accept them as our new leaders. Muggles want to be
free to do our their thing, not succum to this new,
strange 'species' of 'homo sapeins'. Wizards may offer
convienences of magic, making living a lot easier, but it still
won't be easy to start a whole new way of life. I'd say Muggles
would put up quite the fight, and we aren't pushovers, and we out
number wizards by the billion.

Taking over a country is one thing, the whole world is another.
Voldemort of course, would need help from wizards of the south and
west, i mean he wouldn't get very far if he had the rest of
Wizarding countries uniting agains him. Of course after taking over
the Muggle world, they'd have to rule it. Either by democracy or
communism or dictorialship, anarchy, monarchy, or whatever.
I mean they could make slaves of us all, eliminate us all, or simply
govern the way we live. I rather think it's easier to just kill us
all, though it might take some time to eliminate 6 billion people.

It was quite the ambitious undertaking, I think there are just too
many muggels for wizards to take over. 6.6 Billion! How on earth
are you going to keep track of all that?? And if wizards are have
blood relations, then that's going to be a problem eventually.
