For those who read or watched Harry Potter, let me pose a question to you. If wizards and muggles entered into a world war, who would win?
This came to my mind when thinking back on how Voldemort and his Death Eaters viewed muggles as week and inferior. Sure, magic has lots of advantages in everyday life, but would it be enough if all out work broke out between two worlds? Magic is incredibly powerful, but so is technology. Wizards don't have satellites, drones, snipers, hydrogen bombs, or (as far as I know) an equivalent to much modern technology.
For the sake of this argument, let us say muggles became fully aware of the existence of wizards and magic a few years before this situation took place.
So, I repeat myself, which societies would win a world war? Wizards with their magic or muggles with modern technology?
