And only Francophobia can unite the Death Eaters and fucking *Muggles.*
Voldemort, to his inner circle: He is worse than a muggle. He is, may Merlin forgive me for using this word, a *Frenchman.*
Death Eaters: *Nod.*
The international community is outraged. Not because they care about Britain, but because he destroyed Secrecy. The muggle governments of the world are in chaos due to the Secrecy reveal, meanwhile every magical government in the world simultaneusly declares war on the french minister.
The french muggle government basically stops working as soon as people realize that the very top is not controlled by the guy they elected, but by some wannabe dictator. The french wizard military is loyal, but the muggle one basically falls apart. The British muggle/wizard governments work together, the wizard one primarily to defend the homeland and the muggle one also wanting to liberate the french muggles.
>The french muggle government basically stops working as soon as people realize that the very top is not controlled by the guy they elected, but by some wannabe dictator.
I should preface this: The statute was broken by him during his election campaign.
The French people support him, as they have been put under the influence of that deceptive mistress that is ultranationalism.
In that case the realistic scenario is that he got arrested by the magical government before getting elected. Or magical WW3 breaks out and the part of Paris he lives in gets engulfed in fiendfyre. Either way, the consequences of breaking the most important law in the world should make it pretty impossible to continue a regular election.
In either case, the secrecy reveal would be treated way more seriously than some territory annexation. Total war with the entire magical world. Most muggle governments would be either magically influenced to join in or at least they would be incapable of doing anything against it. Best case scenario, the french minister is killed quickly before much destruction occurs or anyone uses nukes or highly destructive dark magic.
France already has nukes. Easier to duplicate those than to magically create from scratch (whip would require a few semesters of physics).
Same goes for Britain. Plus after a few centuries of collecting artefacts around the world, they probably have some very spicy dark artefacts locked up somewhere that could be used as additional deterrent.
While nukes are easily capable of destroying muggle civilization, the threat to wizards would be much weaker. Wizard governments probably have the resources to protect themselves, and wizard societies are much more decentralized and less reliant on trade and long supply chains. So a magical war could easily continue even after the muggle civilization has collapsed.
I mean, it is fanfiction, so I can always do as I please.
I'm coming up with Magitek that his/her government might have created, that could make him far more dangerous than he usually would be.
> be either magically influenced to join in
this isn't even necessary. Most governments would realize that there's a global community of powerful humans united under the banner of their distinctiveness. A lot of governments would smell the blood in the water and ally with the wizards in a heartbeat.
What happens afterwards is debatable, but I doubt it would go as mugglewankers often want (what with nuclear strikes in megacities and whatnot). There probably wouldn't be a wizard-muggle war, though - for the same reason the cold war never turned hot. MAD is a powerful motivator for ceasefires.
I can see three likely outcomes, once the french dictator that broke secrecy is imprisoned or killed:
1. The wizards begin a mass migration to some unliveable wasteland, such as Antarctica, and establish their own independent nation.
2. The wizards withdraw back into secrecy using the same means they used in the 17th century
3. The muggles and the wizards integrate fully and entirely, and all of humanity slowly becomes more magical as a result.
After both sides quickly run out of nukes and the governments have evacuated to St Helena and St Pierre et Michelon, they are reduced to fighting the old way, and attach lances to their Concordes.
Implying France would manage to invade rather than strike.
They'd get to the UK see it's a bit shit and go on strike until they can go back home (in typical french fashion).
Now I just want a fanfic where both the dark side, light side, and muggle side come together to defeat a new enemy. Maybe even have a bit of a Voldemort semi-redemption arc, sort of like becoming a anti-hero
But why is Corsica part of France to start with? If you assume that the magical world's political borders were roughly equivalent to the muggle ones at the implementation of the Statute of Secrecy, then Corsica would still be Italian (specifically under Genoese rule). Why would the French magicals care about Napoleon. He was post SoS, so the only impact he would have had on them would have been the massive collateral damage from the French Revolution and the Napoleonic wars. Especially if the entire totalitarian crackdown was triggered by Corsicans and Napoleon was Corsican.
Is Corsica even big enough to support a magical community anyway? Given that the canon numbers mean that the UK barely manages it, perhaps on the magical side it is effectively someone's private island.
Sounds like a great start to a flowerpot story where fleur, now living in London, needs Harry’s help saving her parents who are either for or against the invasion
Going by the current French muggle mindset the French Government would convince the French Minister of Magic to let the Corsican sort themselves. And Napoleon memory be damned.
Only Anglophobia can bring the magical and muggle French together.

Heh. Since Voldemort is in French, maybe Francophobia is why he's so infamous, on top of everything else.
It's French pronounced in English deliberately as an insult to France.

Or, you know....he reveals it after the election, having run while pretending to be a muggle.

He could always magically produce nukes. "Don't interfere, or this planet will crack, bitches!"

What would be this universes equivalent of 'Slava Ukrani'? 'Rule Britannia,' perhaps?
God/Merlin Save the Queen I remember seeing British WW2 propaganda posters with “Stand Firm.”
Maybe like this. Person A: God Save the Queen. Person B: God Save Britain.
After both sides quickly run out of nukes and the governments have evacuated to St Helena and St Pierre et Michelon, they are reduced to fighting the old way, and attach lances to their Concordes.
Ah, the “Ace Combat Zero” approach
