According to the books of Harry Potter series, the wizarding world is divided in various parts. Those wizards having a pure magical bloodline or the descenders of pure magical ancestors are positioned in the top most position of the wizarding world. Next comes those who are half blooded wizards and the muggles, the wizards with no magical blood lines are placed in the lowest level of the Black Family Tree. You can notice tussle among wizards or the students of Hogwarts School which is related to blood purity.
Speaking about blood purity in the stories of Harry Potter it has to be mentioned that in books and the films made based on these stories it can be noticed that the pure blooded wizards view the muggle born wizards with suspicion and hatred. They are always proud of their blood purity and believe that they should be the actual controller of the wizarding world. They refuse to consider the muggle born wizards as real wizard and often humiliate and harass them in different ways. Some pure blooded wizards are also of the opinion that the muggles don't even have the right to learn magic. There is always a cold war between these two groups and is often lead by Draco Malfoy, the son of Narcissa Maslfoy and Lucius (a death eater).
All activities that take part inside the Hogwarts School of magic every year is an outcome of this blood purity related tussle between the pure blooded wizardss, the half blooded wizards and the muggles. According the stories, the muggles are the most weak section of students as they are not part of any wizard family. One of the reason behind the existence of the muggle born wizards is the intercast marriages between pure blooded wizards and the muggles that are held for stopping the dying out of the families. And the most interesting thing is that Lord Voldemort, the Lord of Darness himself is also not a pure blooded wizard. He too is half blooded.
Tussle among the pupils of Hogwards is one of the most integral part of all books of the Harry Potter series. Without these small fights, jealousy about the outstanding power of harry Potter and attempts to destroy him are things without which the stories can't even be thought of. And apart from the books, the aspect of blood purity has been very well portrayed in the films based on these stories. The thrilling sport of Quiditch which is played in the open ground in Hogwards annually between two teams of the Hogwards School is a perfect example of this blood purity related tussle between the pure blooded and the half blooded wizards.
