Hogwarts has been around for many, many years. Around 1,000 A.D., four wizards and witches all wanted all to have a school where young ones come to learn magic. And so they did. But as the years went by, many problems occurred with Godric Gryffindor and Salazar Slytherin. Slytherin believed that only pure-blooded witches and wizards should be allowed in the school. Slytherin left Hogwarts for the sake of his own conviction. Legends say that he built a secret chamber hidden around the school, and within lies a monster to accomplish his belief for the students. These four sorcerers and sorceresses created the Hogwarts Houses. Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Salazar Slytherin, and Rowena Ravenclaw.
