Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ch. 1-5

1) Dudley Dursley is a spoiled, selfish, and unsympathetic boy. From a very young
age, his parents transmitted to him the hatred they felt for Harry Potter and he
accepted the fact that Harry was an enemy and not a relative, this shows us
that he is a being with little security, decision or self-esteem, that is why bad
with everyone. After Harry invokes his Patronus to drive away the Dementors
and thus save Dudley, Dudley's attitude began to change, he began to think and
decide for himself that perhaps his behavior was not the most appropriate, not
only with Harry. if not with everyone, and there he begins to treat people in a
better way and with respect.

2) Harry spends the whole summer without news from the wizarding world, in
fact, in the book it says that he had to steal the newspapers from the garbage
dumps in order to find out what was happening. Nobody said anything to him,
not even his friends. When Harry arrived at 12 Grimmauld Place, where the
order of the phoenix met, he found his friends and asked why he had not told
him about this, they told him that Dumbledore had made them swear that they
were not going to tell him anything about it. this. Dumbledore did it because he
believed it was best for Harry, that he would be safer around Muggles, and he
sent people to watch over him and protect him. He believed that if Harry knew
about the order of the Phoenix he would want to join, but if he did he would be
in great danger, and Dumbledore did not want that since Harry is the only one
who could defeat Lord Voldemort, this is why many wanted him dead, and
Dumbledore He wasn't going to let that happen. But as we see later, that was
not entirely true as he was attacked by dementors. And in the end he finds out
everything.

3) The Order of the Phoenix is a secret organization founded by Albus

Dumbledore to fight against Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters. The original
Order was founded in the year 1970, when Tom Riddle wanted to take over the
Ministry of Magic to capture Muggle-borns. The Order played a crucial role in
the First Wizarding War, working alongside the Ministry to stop him and his
minions. They were victorious in 1981, when Harry defeated Voldemort. After
this the Order was dissolved but in 1995 it was reconstituted when Harry Potter
informed Albus Dumbledore of the return of the Nameless and the start of the
Second Wizarding War. The problem was that this time the Ministry did not
 accept that the Dark Lord returned, so the Order acted alone and in secret to
protect Harry and the prophecy about him and Lord Voldemort.
The reason why Harry, Ron and Hermione could not be part of the order of the
phoenix, could be because they considered that they were still too young to
understand everything that was happening and could also take a great risk if
they were part of the order.

4) When the Order of the Phoenix made 12 Grimmauld Place their headquarters,
the house had been placed under "all security measures known to magicians."
It was undetectable to Muggles, meaning only wizards could enter, and it had
spells on the front door, so that it could only be unlocked by a wizard using his
wand. The house was also placed under a Fidelio Charm, meaning wizards
couldn't access it either, unless the Keeper of the Secret told them its location.
In order to enter, it is first necessary to push houses 11 and 13 so that house 12
can emerge as through the middle of the two. What comes out is a set of worn
front steps, leading to a battered front door. On the door there is a silver knob
in the shape of a twisted snake, with no holes, handles or anything else to
indicate that it is a door, and it only opens with magic. When someone leaves
the house, the building vanishes behind them the instant they hit the street.
Behind the door is the lobby that Harry describes as dark, smelled musty, dusty
and something rotten and sweet; the house had all the earmarks of an
abandoned building. On one side of the hall was the dining room, which was
filled with spiders when the house was abandoned. At the end of the hall were
the stairs leading to the upper floors, decorated with a row of shrunken house
elf heads mounted on the wall on plaques.
