Great chapter. Harry threw as much truth at 'Moody' as he could handle then launched a super curve that he swallowed hook line and sinker. Loved it!
Don't tell, but he probably buys the jewelry for Hermione, and instead of thanking him 'properly', she pisses and moans about him spending too much!
The explaination about pure and full blood I found to be a bit too confusing, then again, I'm still waking up, so what do I know? Great chapter! Write on!Author's response
Harry will regret the jewelry, but not for that reason.

what was the term Hermione used?" Harry looked at Moody. "The Muggle Ottoman Empire took Christian boys and raised them to be their shock troops in the wars against Christian Europe."
The term you were looking for is "Janissary." Not 100% sure about the spelling, but that is definitely the word for it.
Also, truly marvelous work. I look forward to the rest of it. Re-Ordered, as well.Author's response
Trust me, I know the term, but Harry couldn't, and Barty Crouch Jr certainly wouldn't have. The real Moody might have.

Interesting political/history lesson!
Why is Harry going to such lengths to ensure that Voldemort will wait until the third task to snatch him, and take him off the Hogwarts grounds ... when that's exactly what happened in the original history anyway?Author's response
Harry appears far less bumbling and helpless in this fic (remember, he was only so successful in canon because of Crouch Junior's help). Harry wants Voldemort anxious to get his hands on Harry, but not to jump the gun.
Think about it. The fake Moody could have given Harry a portkey at almost any time. Voldemort wanted this to happen during the third Task so that he could return Harry's dead body to a crowd.

This is boring. Exposition after forced exposition with nothing happening. Who freakin' cares what exact jewelry Hermione wears? Who cares about the fucked up government? Reveal information when it's needed, not in a random appendix you call a chapter. (Actually the past few have been this way.) Is there any action in this story past the dragon and Snape-bullying?
