      History:
      • 1707 - 1718
        Minister Ulick Gamp
        First person to use the title of Minister for Magic. Established the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.


      • 1990 - 1996
        Minister Cornelius Fudge
        Most of the wizarding world supported Albus Dumbledore for Minister when Bagnold retired, but Fudge was appointed when Dumbledore refused the office. Fudge relied heavily on Dumbledore in the first years of his term. When Lord Voldemort returned, Fudge persistently refused to accept it, and launched a smear campaign to discredit those who claimed the Dark Lord had returned. Was ousted from office when Voldemort appeared in the Ministry itself.



      • 1996 - 1997
        Minister Rufus Scrimgeour
        Replaced Cornelius Fudge in the height of the Second Wizarding War. Tried to reassure the wizard population that the ministry were making progress in the war. This was done through reorganising some Ministry offices, publicising arrests, and trying to recruit Harry Potter as the Ministry's poster-boy. As a result, actual progress was reduced and the ministry was not able to meet the threat posed by a returned Voldemort. Murdered at the hands of Voldemort during a Death Eater coup.



      • 1997 - 1998
        Minister Pius Thicknesse
        Put under the Imperius Curse by the Death Eaters, and appointed Minister following their coup. Thicknesse was effectively a puppet of the Death Eater regime and was unconscious of anything he was doing (the reason why he is ommited from most official records as a Minister).



      • 1998 - 2019
        Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt
        • More
        Named "Caretaker Minister for Magic" after the Battle of Hogwarts and the end of the Second Wizarding War, but subsequently elected to the office. Oversaw the capture of Death Eaters and supporters following Voldemort's death. Led a massive reform of the Ministry, in order to rid it of corruption and pro-pure-blood laws. Purged Dementors from Azkaban.
