Pure-Blood Families (Worldwide)

Pureblood families were those Wizarding families still considered to be completely pure by the 2010s. In order to be classified and recognized among its peers as a Pureblood, a family had to prove that all of its ancestors, for as far back as possible(most Houses could trace their forebearers to the Dark Ages), were also Purebloods. Many families had complex and interlinked family trees that served to prove their genealogy. As Pureblood families were far and few in between, most were related to one another.

This list contains those families generally recognized by the Wizarding community to be Pureblood by the 2010s; note that some may not have been entirely Pureblood(merely called such because of their social or financial clout), and that others were denounced as Blood Traitors by their fellow Purebloods because of their progressive views towards Muggleborns.

Foreign Pure-Blood Families
Pureblood Supremacy is a concept which has failed to take root outside of Europe and- to a lesser extent- the Americas; in other continents, such as Africa and especially Asia, the idea of preserving "pure" magical blood is often incompatible with local Wizarding culture, and attempts by European Wizards to export this way of thinking have been largely unsuccessful. A prime example is China, where surnames are so common that any claim of "pure" magical ancestry is laughable. Only Chinese Wizards and Witches with the rarest of surnames- those which could never be confused with that of a Muggle- have ever been able to pass themselves off as Purebloods in the eyes of the West.

However, in America, Canada, and, to a lesser extent, Central America and Australia, the concept of blood purity is just as widespread as in Britain, especially in the United States. Invariably, however, this alleged purity is not nearly as well documented as in Britain. In Europe, outside of England, Pureblood Supremacy is popular in Germany, Russia, and Scandinavia, and there exists a powerful upper-crust of Pureblood nobility in countries such as France, Italy, and Spain.
