Grindelwald didn't tell Voldemort about the Elder Wand due to complex motives, primarily remorse for his past extremism and a newfound respect for Dumbledore, leading him to protect Dumbledore's tomb from desecration and prevent Voldemort from wielding such power. He also despised Voldemort's shallow lust for power, seeing him as a brute compared to his own (flawed) grand vision, and likely found satisfaction in defying the younger dark wizard while imprisoned.
Plus Voldemort was born when Grindelwald was in power and then fell from power. It could be understandable why voldemort didn't recognize him.
Years later, Voldemort tracked Gregorovitch for answers but found only a memory — a blond boy fleeing through a window. It took him time to realize that boy was Grindelwald. Determined, Voldemort went to Nurmengard to interrogate him. But Grindelwald, now old and remorseful, refused to reveal any secrets.
Because Grindewald felt remorse, true remorse, about his actions over the course of his life. He knew Voldemort could easily kill him, but he considered his imprisonment and death to be his penance for what he did, so he did not fear or resist Voldemort at all.
Therefore, Grindelwald could get to know everything else about Tom/Voldemort from these conversations with Dumbledore - the new things Albus discovered from the boy's past and even the most recent events linked with Voldemort's rise to power.
Originating possibly in Indonesia, by 1927 she was a performer at the Circus Arcanus where she met Credence Barebone (Aurelius Dumbledore) and had a romantic relationship with him.
remember my last, petunia. " Dumbledore is referring to his last letter, which means, of course, the letter he left upon the Dursleys' doorstep when Harry was one year old.
There's no single "saddest" death, as fans cite different characters, but Dobby, Sirius Black, Fred Weasley, Remus Lupin, and Snape are consistently named among the most heartbreaking due to their profound loyalty, tragic lives, or sudden, impactful losses, with Dobby's selfless sacrifice often topping lists for his pure heart and newfound freedom, and Fred's death devastating his twin George and family, notes Quora and Facebook users https://www.facebook.com/groups/309399756202202/posts/2389613828180774, and Reddit.
Voldemort found Nagini in Albania after his initial defeat, likely while he was a weak spirit possessing snakes; she was a unique, powerful snake, possibly a Maledictus (a witch with a blood curse turning her into a beast), making her an ideal companion, and he eventually made her his final Horcrux by murdering Bertha Jorkins with her present. Their connection deepened as he used her venom to sustain himself and later made her a container for his soul, ensuring their bond was profound and twisted.
In order to conjure the avada kedavra curse, you have to want to kill your victim. We all know that Voldemort could easily kill a child without an ounce of remorse... but not Snape. Snape didn't want to kill Dumbledore, and this was why the spell was blue instead of the usual green.

For someone like Voldemort who relies on secrecy, an omnipresent character like Dumbledore who be terrifying, particularly adding in his power and popularity. Another reason for Voldemort's fear could be also due to the fact that Dumbledore was already famed for defeating a dark wizard Grindelwald.
Dumbledore planned this act to ensure Harry didn't feel alone in his darkest moment. The Stone wasn't for regular use but for Harry to find peace and emotional support before his sacrifice." Yeah so Dumbledore at one point had all 3 of the Deathly Hallows and gave 2 to Harry.
Voldemort,the antagonist, only feared Dumbledore because of a few reasons. One reason why Voldemort feared only Dumbledore is because Dumbledore was the only one who saw Voldemort as a dangerous fanatic with a thirst for power and the goal to be able to live forever.
It's been a while since I read the books and, talking to friends, we've come to the conclusion that Snape was the Death Eater that Voldemort liked the most and perhaps even respected.
Grindelwald genuinely believed he would be helping society as a whole by having wizards take control. If he were to make a horcrux, that would be for selfish, personal reasons. Random murder wouldn't serve "the greater good" and wouldn't fit with his other beliefs.
Until then, Voldemort required the potion every few hours to keep his crippled body alive, and Pettigrew had to continuously milk Nagini for the venom to keep feeding his master.
He trusted snape because snape had proven himself many times before. Voldemort took anyone that was magical and had his own ideas in common during his first crusade.

George's twin brother, Fred Weasley, was killed when the Death Eaters attacked Hogwarts Castle, so George's life was likely significantly different after Voldemort's defeat.

Page 394 in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban refers to Professor Snape telling the class to turn to that page in their Defense Against the Dark Arts (DADA) textbook, which is about werewolves, a deliberate hint that the substitute teacher, Professor Lupin, is one himself, a secret Snape was trying to expose. While the specific text varies slightly by edition, it introduces the topic of werewolves as nocturnal beasts, contrasting with the Red Caps and Hinky-Punks they were learning about, to reveal Lupin's true nature.
First, they had to keep him until he was seventeen as per Dumbledore's letter. They viewed him as a way to insulate themselves against the dark wizards who might on an off chance attack them. Second, they hated magic. They wanted to quash the magic out of him.
“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.” Albus Dumbledore to Harry in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, an incredible quote; for without words, what would we read?
