The Ministry of Magic was created in 1707 to supervise the magic community in Great Britain
Great Britain. The Ministry is based in Whitehall, London in England. However, this ministry
has an affiliation with the International Confederation of Magicians which is an equivalent to
the United Nations. The Ministry is responsible of regulating aspects such as education,
jurisprudence and economics. Previously the Ministry had action in the adoption of sanctions
against states suspected of being linked to certain terrorist acts. Years later, with the return
of Voldemort along with several major incidents involving groups of criminal magicians,
prisoners of Azkaban and even Death Eaters with the purpose of affecting the magical
community. Therefore, the minister of magic gave the order to open a new department
against terrorist attacks to regulate and take care of the direct attacks against the magical
community.

The Ministry of Magic is the main governing body of the magical community of Great Britain
(England, Scotland and Wales and Ireland), with the intention of preservation of magical law.
The Ministry connects the British government to the wizarding world. The Ministry of Magic
was formed as a successor to the earlier Wizards' Council and came into being in 1707.The
 Ministry of Magic: Department against terrorism
laws against magic-use by underage wizards and against wand use by non-wizard folk are
also enforced by the Ministry, in part to maintain secrecy.

In the case of the departments against terrorist attacks, they can only be as support and as a
mean of recommendations from the magic security department and other areas responsible
for problems within the ministry.
In turn, it is known that the Ministry of magic can only take measures around internal
problems in the region, if they speak of international levels, that have to do with the
International Confederation of Magicians, that would mean a greater participation where the
Ministry cannot intervene.

Death Eater attacks on the International Magic Community on the Quidditch

Tournament.

● Real Problem:

After the accident that occurred during the Triwizard Tournament, where different schools
participated in the Hogwarts Headquarters, different people declared that they were
observing The Dark Lord along with some Death Eaters, however, the actions taken by the
Ministry were questioned because this organization flatly denies the appearance of Lord
Voldemort or the presence of his former followers, although he has followed an investigation
into the death of one of his students, Cedric Diggory.1

As the ministry flatly denies the appearance of Lord Voldemort, the ministry together with the
International Magic Community decided, on behalf of the other council members, that the
Triwizard Tournaments would be restarted, resuming the Tournament's activities and
challenges.

Which was opened by a Quidditch Tournament between the houses of Gryffindor and
Slytherin. In which the three most important magic schools were spectators: the
Beauxbatons Academy, the Durmstrang Institute and the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and

Wizardry, along with respective Magic Advisers and some members of the Ministry, aurors
and certain journalists.

Near the end of the Quidditch match, the students were put at risk in view of a sudden attack
from the stands to participants and spectators; who alerted the aurors, teachers, and
members of the ministry to the sudden attack at the time. They wanted to act, they observed
two forceful explosions, possibly by bombs of some kind of magic device and consecutive
attacks by Death Eaters. They took the appropriate measures to evacuate the students and
spectators, as well as trying to rescue the participants of the game, which suffered serious
injuries and having one fatality death, the other Quidditch players were injured in addition to
the attackers escaping.

The Aurors and Investigators, as well as the guardians of each Hogwarts house, quickly
began an investigation after the evacuation, in which they interviewed several guest
teachers and magicians from the guest schools. The case remains unfinished, but so far
three deaths have been reported, including the death of a Slytherin House Quidditch Player,
an Auror in the midst of a wand duel, and a student from the Beauxbatons Academy of
Magic. To this point t​here  has been ​a total of 282 wounded, ​from which ​counting 16 members
of the Hogwarts School.
The Anti-Terror Chamber of the Magic Ministry is preparing the necessary investigations and
corresponding procedures together with the International Confederation of Magicians. There
is an international risk in which the other magic schools of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang
Institute want to take measures in view of the death of one of the student Beauxbatons and
also, the multiple injuries of students from both schools, risking the public and social opinion
of the Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic.

It is of great importance to be able to debate this topic because it involves the International
Magical Community and it is responsible for the death and damage to the integrity of
magicians of the world. Therefore, there can be quite controversial actions and debates
between the Ministry of Magic and the Magic Schools that intervened and were part of this
attack. Just as this act could be completely related to the rumors about a possible
appearance of the Dark Lord, which alarms all members of the International Magic
Confederation and that it is an extremely delicate matter that must be taken care of that the
press distributes it correctly. Hence, the most coherent, concise, peaceful and timely
responses to this discussion should be given.
