05 Magic School

It was a very long journey, from England to France, across the oceans and through several countries in western Europe, which was enough to jolt the young wizards of Hogwarts. Vertex Says X 23 U OM

"Although it is known that the location of Beauxbatons is in France...... But do any of you know exactly where it is? In the midst of all the boredom, Axinsha suddenly asked.

Several people present shook their heads blankly, even Hermione, who had read a lot of books about magic, didn't know the exact location of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

"Maybe it's too good to be hidden, after all, the location of the magic school is hidden, although the wizards of the whole United Kingdom know where the location of Hogwarts is, but they don't know much about foreign magic schools, this is a kind of protection, as if the Muggles of the whole world don't know the location of Hogwarts, and sometimes if this protection is too good, foreign wizards will not know very well." Sherlock explained.

The precise location of each magic school is a closely guarded secret.

Not only because of the fear of Muggle persecution (wizarding wars of varying degrees are recorded in the long history of each school), but also because of pressure from the magical department (not only in the UK, but also in all regions where the education of young wizards was suppressed to a certain extent).

Historically, schools of witchcraft and wizardry tended to be built in the mountainous interior (with exceptions) because these areas were difficult for Muggles to find and could easily be used to protect themselves from the destruction of dark magic wizards.

On the map of the wizarding world published by the wizarding world, the description of the magic school only reveals a small part of the relevant details.

The map of the wizarding world shows that there are a total of 11 famous wizarding schools in the international wizarding world, but only 7 are currently known (including Hogwarts) In addition to Hogwarts in the United Kingdom, Beauxbatons in France, and Durmstrang near Scandinavia, the wizarding schools on other continents have only just appeared.

After all, the wizarding world of each country is very different from the international situation of Muggle countries, for example, if two countries merge, then the wizarding world of the two countries will also merge, but if a country is divided, then the wizarding world will also be divided into two, which is formal, the original Soviet Union and the current Russia are like this.

However, although the international magical community composed of the wizarding circles of various countries is the first international situation force recognized by wizards, there are also some countries that are unwilling to integrate into the torrent of the international magical community due to backwardness or inconsistent political opinions, as well as poverty, and of course, they are unwilling to disclose the true strength of their own magical world.

Even in remote places, there may be schools of magic, but they are not allowed to be made public due to the decisions of the local magic regime, especially in the international sphere......

Of course, there are also some people who are willing to move forward with the times and integrate into the international torrent, after all, backwardness means being beaten passively, and once the national magic community is open to the public, the forces within it will also be made public.

For example, in the last ten years, four magic schools have been exposed.

They are the 'Castro Brook School of Witchcraft and Wizardry' in Brazil. ’

This South American school of magic and wizardry is located deep in a hidden rainforest, and for Muggles who have accidentally strayed into it and have no magic, all they see is ruins.

But in reality, Castrobrook is a square, resplendent castle reminiscent of a temple.

The school is guarded by Capora elves, plush elves from the mythology of Brazil's indigenous peoples, who often help look after the students and forest creatures in the dark.

Castrobrook's former Headmaster Doradu offered to send a few Capora elves to Hogwarts' Forbidden Forest so that Headmaster Armand, who was complaining about Peeves at the time, knew that they were the ones who would cause trouble, but he was rejected.

Castrobrook's pupils wore bright green cloaks and were particularly skilled in potions and magical biology, and the school offered many exchange opportunities for European students interested in South American potions, as well as producing outstanding potions scientists such as Liberasius Polacci and João Coelho.

Bill Weasley had wanted to go, but couldn't because his family couldn't afford it.

There is also a school of magic that is the Ugadou School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Africa.

Ugadou is the largest of all the schools of magic (although there are several smaller schools of magic in Africa, but in the end only this one is more than 1,000 years old and has gained international acclaim), and he welcomes students from all continents, but gives only the clue that the Moon Mountains are located.

Ugadou's graduates excel in astronomy, alchemy, and self-transfiguration.

The wand was a European invention, and before it was adopted by African wizards in the last century, they could cast spells with a wave of their fingers or gestures, until they took the form of a long wooden wand.

At a recent international alchemy symposium, the Ugadou team's work sparked a riot, and many older and experienced wizards found it dangerous to conjure up elephants and cheetahs by their minds, and filed a formal complaint with the International Federation of Wizards.

Students who are admitted to Ugadu will receive a 'Dream Bringer' notification. Sent by the headmaster at the time, the Dream Messenger would appear when the children were asleep and leave a mark – usually when the children woke up to find themselves holding a stone with words engraved on it, a unique way Ugadou had chosen.

Mahotokoro School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Japan.

Located on the supposedly uninhabitable volcanic island of South Iwo Jima, the school's ornate and elaborate façade is made of mutton fat and white marble, and students ride giant petrels to and from school and home every day.

This old Japanese school has the fewest students out of 11.

The age line for students is 7 years old and above, but they must be 11 years old to start classes.

Students are required to wear magical robes in school, which change color depending on the size of the students and as the students become more able to learn, initially pink and then golden, but if the students violate the rules of the Japanese or international wizarding world, or perform forbidden magic (i.e., black magic), the robes will turn white. Turning white is a very shameful act, and you will face expulsion from school or judgment.

The reputation of Japanese schools of magic and wizardry comes not only from their outstanding academic achievements, but also from their Quidditch reputation.

Legend has it that Quidditch was introduced to Japan centuries ago when a group of unscrupulous Hogwarts students were blown off halfway and rescued by the school's students on unsuitable magical broomsticks that wanted to circumnavigate the globe.

They stayed here for a while and taught them how to play Quidditch, but soon regretted it.

Japan's Quidditch players were trained rigorously with the current League champions, the Toyohashi Tengu, and sometimes they practiced in stormy seas, keeping an eye out for Muggle planes and Boggarts flying over nearby islands.

There is also the magic of Ilvermorny in the United States, which can be explained without explanation, and four of the eleven magic schools have not been made public.
