| - Durmstrang is an old school, being founded in 1184, and is considered the "black sheep" of the wizarding world. Being one of the few schools still containing the Dark Arts within its curriculum, the school has achieved quite an infamous reputation. Students are sorted into one of three "Doms"; Olekov, Kelstrom and Kor, who, much like Hogwarts or Ilvermorny, are each meant to house those with certain traits. Durmstrang students receive nine years of education, beginning at the age of ten. Although much is made of Durmstrang's policy on Muggle-borns, their Slavic headmaster, Igor Karkaroff, maintains that since Durmstrang teaches students from such a wide variety of countries, the induction of Muggle-born students would raise the student population to unsustainable levels. The headmaster has also encouraged a culture of fear and intimidation among the students for decades, and pressure is mounting from inside and outside the school, with many predicting his ousting within the end of the decade.
