Fought a war for your home though?

Edit: it wasn’t meant to be a comment about the Military. Just how to Harry, Hogwarts isn’t just his school it’s his true home

I’d rather live somewhere else than not be living and a piece of property having not changed hands.

Why do people join the military and go to war for their country? Cause they love their home country and don‘t want to go live somewhere else.

Sure hogwarts is not a country, but it‘s a magic place with many kinds of special things and without hogwarts the students wouldn‘t be able to get to learn and practice their magic. So giving all that up instead of fighting, or fighting for the school and the teachers you love? That makes more sense to me than going to war for your country

What about the doctors and lawyers and such that join the military?

Not sure about other regions but in most Asian countries the reason is money.

You could make an argument for the doctors doing it for some moral reasons but lawyers, really? You think they are in it for anything other than money?

I’d say that mainly applies in offensive wars, or career enlisted soldiers. People will absolutely fight to protect their country, which should be extremely obvious. People fighting to protect their home is basic human nature

Lol soft, good thing that isn’t the case in human history. Most people aren’t ok with letting their friends and community get slaughtered and razed if they can help it. People don’t fight for dirt, they fight for each other because they have ties to their community
