What would warfare be like if witches and wizards (the kind that fly on brooms, cast spells, make potions, etc.) were real and integrated enough in their respective national and ethnic communities to enlist and fight in wars out of patriotic fervor?

In the film "the wizard of oz" the Wicked Witch of the West is able to, entirely remotely though a crystal ball, cause an effect that makes anyone within a large area fall asleep and never wake up until another witch breaks the enchantment.I want you to imagine for a moment the strategic implications of such an ability.

Depends entirely on what kind of magic system we're working with. There's no clear answer until you give an exact work of fiction.

They would quickly become the ruling class and genocide any non-magic users.

In the Wizard of Oz book, the Poppy Field is a consistent hazard that you just need to be dragged out of to be cured.In the movie version, the witch gives a strange monologue about her spell, mixes something in a mortar near her crystal ball, then Dorothy finds herself surrounded by poppy flowers which cause her and the lion to immediately lose consciousness until Glinda uses magic to break the spell.

probably for a highly specific and repetitive task like mine clearance or remote bombing

This is the only anon that is remotely close. The existence of magic users capable of doing flashy Harry Potter style spells would've fundamentally altered human history in such a way that humanity would exist in a completely alien way to us.If these wizards existed since the beginning of time, they would very likely be worshiped as living gods by primitive humans and would rule over normies as magic aristocrats that would tightly control the spread of their magic lineage. Earth kingdoms would be similar to Dark Sun or the Goa'uld from Stargate, a collection of realms entirely based on the personal rule of whichever God-Wizard is stronger, and advanced science and industry would probably never arise

It'd involve a lot of remote-viewing and weather control. Just ground all your enemy's sea and air assets with constant storms and spy on all their top brass constantly.

An entertaining curiosity when artillery, nukes and chemical weapons exist. Actually wait. They'd fulfill a similar role to the company level drone operator in that they can recon and call for fire, except magic is on the other side of the call. That or they'd be locked in the water treatment plant, energy plant or industrial incinerator. Imagine them going from medieval nobility with godlike powers to unionized utilities workers.

Mania Flippinger (Bibi Blocksberg) once froze the entire earth, snowball earth style, because she was annoyed at something or other.
Flying brooms would be the least of our worries.

there's some interesting Harry Potter fanfiction that delves into this
basically the big divergences are either>1) as above, so below
based on the theory that wizard and muggle life is more intertwined than either admits
the muggle battlefield becomes a proxy or the visible tip of a magical shadow war iceberg. this is more or less canon at least for WW2, as JK Rowling hinted that the Dumbledore-Grindelwald war was at the very least concurrent if not part of muggle WW2alternatively,
>2) wizards won't have the same politics as muggles
which is plausible because of how isolated wizard communities are, in SOME ways, from muggles
the problem is mudbloods, but canonically they make up such a tiny proportion of the wizard population that it would be easy to basically ignore their problems or deal with them ad hoc
halfbloods are more numerous and more intertwined and they would be the real problem

I thought myself immune to the charms of MILFs until I caught myself looking past all the teenyboppers and YAs in their braless crop-tops at a svelte young mum pushing a pramthen I realised that there's truly nothing more sexually arousing than a reasonably fit bird willing to raise your childrenno less than the Bard of Avon knew this too.
