Hade av Muggles skulle fortfarande finnas.
Även om den mörka Herren förlorade kriget, skulle trollkarlar som hatar Muggles fortfarande existera. Trollkarlar som hatar Muggles orsakades inte av den mörka herren, och det finns ingen anledning att tro att de skulle utrotas av kriget med Mörkherren. En viss mängd trollkarlar har hatat Muggles i århundraden, förutseende sekretesslagen.
“A pro-Muggle story showing a Muggle-loving father as superior in magic to a Muggle-hating son? It is nothing short of amazing that any copies of the original version of this tale survived the flames to which they were so often consigned.
Beedle was somewhat out of step with his times in preaching a message of brotherly love for Muggles. The persecution of witches and wizards was gathering pace all over Europe in the early fifteenth century.”
- The Tales of Beedle the Bard
Kriget skulle inte ha avlivat alla med renblodsvärden. Trollkarlarna som hatar Muggles var inte alla som faktiskt kämpar för den mörka herren - några av de mest ivriga troende i renblodsorsaken var bara tyst till förmån för den mörka herren.
“Were – were your parents Death Eaters as well?’
‘No, no, but believe me, they thought Voldemort had the right idea, they were all for the purification of the wizarding race, getting rid of Muggle-borns and having pure-bloods in charge. They weren’t alone, either, there were quite a few people, before Voldemort showed his true colours, who thought he had the right idea about things … they got cold feet when they saw what he was prepared to do to get power, though.”
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 6 (The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black)
Flera trollkarlar hatar Muggles, eftersom några trollföräldrar undviker att berätta för sina barns historier som målar Muggles i ett positivt ljus, som den ursprungliga versionen av "The Wizard and the Hopping Pot".
“To this day, some Wizarding children are only told the revised version of the story by their (generally anti-Muggle) parents, and the original, if and when they ever read it, comes as a great surprise.”
- The Tales of Beedle the Bard
Föräldrar begärde att vissa berättelser som var för godkännande av Muggles skulle avlägsnas, så det finns ett kontingent av trollkarlar som hatar Muggles och vill överföra sin tro på. Det är troligt att åtminstone några av dem lyckades med detta.
“More than one parent has demanded the removal of this particular tale from the Hogwarts library, including, by coincidence, a descendant of Brutus Malfoy and one-time member of the Hogwarts Board of Governors, Mr. Lucius Malfoy. Mr. Malfoy submitted his demand for a ban on the story in writing:
Any work of fiction or nonfiction that depicts interbreeding between wizards and Muggles should be banned from the bookshelves of Hogwarts. I do not wish my son to be influenced into sullying the purity of his bloodline by reading stories that promote wizard—Muggle marriage.”
- The Tales of Beedle the Bard
Också några av dem som kämpade för den mörka herren överlevde, och deras övertygelser förändrades inte nödvändigtvis. Lucius och Narcissa Malfoy slutade inte missa Muggles eftersom de förlorade kriget eller bytte sig, de ville bara inte gå till Azkaban.
Georgina: Did lucius malfoy, and all the other escaped death eaters, go back to azkaban
J.K. Rowling: No, the Malfoys weaseled their way out of trouble (again) due to the fact that they colluded (albeit out of self-interest) with Harry at the end of the battle.

Kanske viktigast, det har varit trollkarlar som hatar Muggles i århundraden - det finns ingen anledning att tro att det här kriget skulle eliminera det från det trollkarlska samhället helt.
Departementet ändrade dock.
Även om trollkarlar som hatar Muggles inte skulle sluta existera på grund av kriget, ändrade ministeriet verkligen som ett resultat av kriget. Det var korrupt och diskrimineringen avskaffades.
Leaky Cauldron: What, if anything, did the wizarding world learn, and how did society change, as a direct result of the war with voldemort? (i.E., not as a result of harry, ron and hermione's future careers.)
J.K. Rowling: The Ministry of Magic was de-corrupted, and with Kingsley at the helm the discrimination that was always latent there was eradicated.
J.K. Rowling: Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny et al would of course play a significant part in the re-building of wizarding society through their future careers.

Som en del av avdelningen för Magical Law Enforcement har Hermione dessutom tagit bort "pro-pure-blood" -lagar.
Katieleigh: Does hermione still continue to do work with SPEW and is life any better for house elves!
J.K. Rowling: Hermione began her post-Hogwarts career at the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures where she was instrumental in greatly improving life for house-elves and their ilk. She then moved (despite her jibe to Scrimgeour) to the Dept. of Magical Law Enforcement where she was a progressive voice who ensured the eradication of oppressive, pro-pureblood laws.

Så förändrade ministeriet som ett direkt resultat av kriget, och flera lagar ändrades också.
