[HPforGrownups] Death Eater Trials - Karkaroff

No: HPFGUIDX 22071

One question I have is, why was Karkaroff tried in
(apparently) a 
British wizarding court?  Was Voldemort active only in
Britain, or 
did he have followers around the world?  Wouldn't
other nationalities 
have had their own wizarding court systems, with their
own prisons?

I believe that Karkaroff must have lived in Britian
for some time, perhaps most of his life, I am saying
this because there is no noticeable difference in the
way he talks(atleast, if there is JKR didn't seem to
write it out like she did for Fluer, Madame Maxine,
Viktor).  I am guessing that he lived in Britain,
either had some eduaction there or what not and then
joined the Death Eaters.  After getting out of the
prison, the might have actually asked him to leave the
country and so he did and took up post at Durmstrang. 
Now I am not sure if Voldie is active in the other
countries, my theory is he is a threat to most of
Europe but then I don't know for sure.
