5 Nonsense Things About the Ministry of Magic

Check out some facts about the Ministry of Magic, present in the Harry Potter universe, that make no sense

The Harry Potter universe has many details, which makes the plot very true in the eyes of fans. The fact of J.K. Rowlingauthor of the books that inspired the Warner Bros.

However, there are some things about the Ministry of Magic itself that still raise questions. Check out some of these details!

1. Security

Security within the Ministry of Magic is questionable. That’s because Harry Potter, along with his friends, managed to invade the institution’s headquarters at just 15 years old. Although, in this case reported in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”, the golden trio had indirect help from Voldemort and the Death Eaters, they end up repeating the act in “Deathly Hallows”, which proves that the security of the place is not the best.

This security breach doesn’t make much sense, as the Ministry is supposed to be one of the safest places in the Wizarding World, just like Hogwarts.


2. Ministry Income

Every time Harry needed to enter the Ministry of Magic, he used the public entrances, such as the time he got there via a Muggle telephone booth. In addition, we cannot forget the time he accessed the institution’s building by flushing a public toilet.

Despite being fun moments within the saga, they are still a little strange, since, as they are public places in the muggle world, some non-magical beings can see wizards disappearing inside a telephone booth, or realize that a person does not came back from the bathroom — not to mention the risk of these people ending up inside the Ministry. The ideal would be a passage that requires the wizard’s wand and in a more inconspicuous place.


3. Regulations on Magical Objects

Lucius Malfoy, Draco’s father who was played on the big screen byJason Isaacs, appears in “The Chamber of Secrets” selling some items to Mister Borgin, owner of the shop Borgin and Burkes. He does this because if the Ministry were to break into his house and find these artifacts, he would be in serious trouble.

Such an attitude makes the regulation on some magical objects, created by the Ministry, not make much sense. Isn’t it odd that the Malfoys can’t have these items while Mister Borgin can sell them to anyone, including the institution’s employees? It is noteworthy that the shopkeeper does not sell in secret, and has a shop that any wizard can visit.


4. Jobs

Have you noticed that almost all existing jobs in the Wizarding World are within the Ministry of Magic? Aside from wizards who work in shops or wandmaking, the rest only get government-related jobs.

This means that much of the wizarding economy comes directly from the Ministry, which turns out to be a bit strange after all the losses in the First Wizarding War. Another thing that doesn’t make sense is how this organ, which has many wizards full of diverse talents, ended up being dominated so easily by Voldemort. If almost all witches work there, why didn’t it have a better defense?


5. Laws for minors

In “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” the protagonist has contact for the first time with the Ministry of Magic. He ends up receiving a statement, a kind of first instance, for using magic outside Hogwarts.

However, during “Deathly Hallows”, Harry discovers that only wizards who were created by Muggles, which is his case, can be detected using magic “illegally”. That way, any magic that is used near the Dursley house can be attributed to him, as the Ministry only keeps an eye on that area and not on the wizard himself. Therefore, the institution’s control system is very flawed.
