The origins of the Harry Potter franchise can be traced back to the imaginative mind of J.K. Rowling, who conceived the idea during a train journey in 1990. Inspired by a vision of a young boy discovering he was a wizard, Rowling meticulously crafted a world filled with magic, adventure, and profound themes of friendship and bravery. The initial publication of “Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone” in 1997 marked the beginning of a cultural phenomenon that would soon transcend literary boundaries and evolve into a multi-faceted franchise encompassing films, merchandise, theme parks, and more.
