Harry Potter was born into the Wizarding World, and prophesied to be the savior of the magical world. Harry attends Hogwarts, a boarding school for young witches and wizards, and over his six years there, works up the power to defeat Lord Voldemort. Simon Snow, on the other hand, was born a Normal. At age eleven, he was taken to Watford, the magical school in the World of Mages. He is thought to be the Chosen One, and is trained to use his magic to defeat the Humdrum.

Ron Weasley and Penelope Bunce are alike in the sense that they are the best friend of the main character, and could even be considered as the sidekicks.

"Happiness is not something you postpone for the future, it is something you design for the present." (Jim Rohn) The dystopian genre includes stories where they try to maintain the "perfect" society. This is going to be a comparison of two different dystopian stories. The first one is the movie known as the “ The Truman show". This movie is about a man named Truman whose life is a TV show. All of his friends and family are actors or actresses. During the movie Truman slowly catches on to the fact that he's living in the alternate reality. The book we are reading is called "Fahrenheit 451." it is about a man named Montag who is a fireman. Notice he is called a fireman rather than a firefighter? That is because rather than putting fires out he starts them. In this society people get so offended by everything that people have outlawed books so they have to be burned by fireman.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and the movie The Truman Show are two separate works with a similar plot; the truth being hidden from someone. Fahrenheit 451 is about a man named Guy Montag who lives in a world where books are made out to be worthless, and shallow entertainment is idealized. He eventually realizes that this isn’t true, and makes an effort to escape his society and learn the truth about books. The Truman Show is a movie about a man named Truman Burbank whose entire life is being filmed so other people can watch it on TV, but he has no idea. However, he starts to suspect that something is strange about his life, and acts on these suspicions.

It is normal for humans to crave power and control, but resentful feelings may occur if dominance and authority are not asserted with complete control.

In both cases, dominance over the lower members of their societies is key for the leaders to retain control.

The roles of the high, middle, and lower class have had a huge place in society because each class plays its own unique role. The novels 1984 and Lord of the Flies each have a distinct class system that allows things such as food, language, and harm to dictate the means of survival by the power of their leaders. In 1984, the lower class makes war materials out of the fear of war, while in Lord of the Flies, the lower class relies on Jack for maintaining the only food source available on the island; thus, both novels have a hierarchy that leads the power to those who have the basic life necessities one needs to live.
