- "Bloodthirsty and brutal, the giants brought themselves to the point of extinction by warring amongst themselves during the last century. The handful that remained joined the ranks of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, and were responsible for some of the worst mass Muggle killings of his reign of terror. While many of the giants who served He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named were killed by Aurors working against the Dark Side, Fridwulfa was not among them. It is possible she escaped to one of the giant communities still existing in foreign mountain ranges."
- — Rita Skeeter writing in the Daily Prophet, under DUMBLEDORE'S GIANT MISTAKE[src]
This giant army was a large group of Giants who served the Death Eaters and fought for Lord Voldemort in the First Wizarding War. At the end of the First Wizarding War, Aurors from the Ministry of Magic and other enemies of the Death Eaters, began killing giants and most of the giants that had sided with Lord Voldemort were killed. Those who weren't killed were driven away and joined the giant colony in Eastern Europe.[1] It's likely that the survivors were among those who joined Voldemort during the Second Wizarding War.[5][4]
