Episode description
The introduction of the International Statute of Secrecy in 1692 marked a pivotal moment in Wizarding history. It put a stop to the witch hunts and unjust persecution of witches and wizards. It ushered in an era of harmonious co-existence.
And most importantly, it separated the two worlds: muggle and magical.
But what IF there was a darker element to the statute that has never been properly explored?- an element that concerned the muggles beyond the primary separation of the two worlds? What if the statute, and the subsequent formation of the Ministry of Magic- marked the dawn of an era wherein wizardkind stealthily wielded control over the non-magical world, deftly manipulating it from the concealed depths of the shadows?
Today we’re going to be exploring all of that, and more, as we discuss wizardkind’s *silent* control over the Muggle dominion.
