The History of Every MAGIC School in the Wizarding World (All 11) - Harry Potter Explained
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 06. 2024
- Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re taking a look at the GLOBAL wizarding community. In the Harry Potter books and films we’re more or less confined to a couple of places within the UK, and that was our primary introduction to the wizarding world. However, when the Fantastic Beasts films came about- the wizarding world as we know it began expanding- showing us new countries and magical places. In fact, much of the Fantastic Beasts films so far have taken place in America and France, with the next installment bringing us ALL OVER the place. With our ever-growing knowledge of other wizarding countries, I find it particularly interesting how the wizarding culture differs from place to place, and in today’s video I’m going to be honing in on one particular aspect of that culture- the school system.
Because you see, Hogwarts (though granted the potentially biased honour of the ‘worlds greatest magic school’, isn’t the only option for witches and wizards around the globe. Today, I want to open your eyes to the rest of them..At least the ones we know about anyway. As it turns out, there are eleven established wizarding schools in total- at least, 11 that are OFFICIALLY registered with the International Confederation of Wizards- the primary governing body. There are others, but they aren’t as ‘official’ or ‘regulated’, and we don’t know much about those ones. Now I know what you might be thinking- 11 SCHOOLS? For the whole WORLD? That’s it? Well- Pottermore has a fair explanation for this:
“Affairs relating to magical schooling are handled by the Educational Office of the International Confederation of Wizards, who can direct people to their nearest school. However, the majority of magical communities choose to homeschool young witches and wizards, which is why there are so few schools in comparison to the number of countries. Alternatively, some witches and wizards might take correspondence courses, which may prove a cheaper option in countries that are too small to have their own school.”
Okay- so there are 11 OFFICIAL wizarding schools, a few ‘unofficial’ schools, and a significant population of homeschooled students. Now there’s just one thing left to answer- what are these 11 schools? Which countries are they in? How do they differ from Hogwarts?
Let’s get in to it.

i just like hogwarts lol
While Hogwarts will always be my Favorite School. I’ve completely embraced my American School. Proud to be a Thunderbird of Ilvermorny!!!
hogwarts
Hey HPT the Japanese school is pronounced Maho toh ko ro. Mahou literally meaning magic in Japanese and Tokoro meaning by the way which I assume to translate to the magical way or the way of magic. My Japanese isnt very good but from my understanding that is what I garnered from the translation.
@@Jedda678 Tokoro actually means place or location. Calling it Mahoutokoro actually sounds really awkward in Japanese but I’m sure the intention was for it to mean “magical place” and google translate popped that out.
The comment section here proved once more that Fantastic Beasts should've been an actual series about Newt travelling to different countries, seeing their magic and cultures and finding fantastic beasts in between. So many people are interested to see more countries and their magic systems/schools/mythology etc!
agree!!
It’s just so much opportunity. Perhaps future HP games could give us further insight
Like a thornberries show but with newt going to all those places. I . DIG . THAT
I love hogwarts legacy but they so could’ve made a game at a different wizard school?? Like hopefully they will next game maybe if there is one
I agree to some extent. My only issue with that is Newt is the least interesting character in the entire magical universe in my opinion.
In Poland we have a Harry Potter themed summer camp for children from 9 to 18 years old. They are being taken to famous polish castles (like Czocha) sorted to houses (different than in the books) and taught things like potions, spells and all of the other stuff, all while wearing robes. The funniest thing is the tourists passing by and being very confused (those muggles… so unaware)
Edit: Wow I didn't expect my comment to blow up so much, glad you enjoyed it! In fact I'm going there as a "professor" this summer. It's called Quatromondis if you're curious and wanna google it (there's Quatronum too, it was part of mondis in the past but they split to two :( )
I WANNA COME 😭✋ to bad I'm not polish
This is what I have wanted all my life
That's so cool I would love to do that
That sounds so cool.
I love this. Thank you. Bewitched was a great show, and growing up I had wished it was real.
They never actually acknowledge the language barrier, do they? Because making Brazil the only South American country with a Wizarding school means that most South Americans would struggle attending classes in Portuguese rather than in Spanish. It's probably worst for the Japanese and African schools which are meant to be the only schools of Asia and Africa respectively and which continents have a huge variety of languages.
So, I guess magic universal translators have a to be a thing.
Or that are just the big Schools. Maybe there are alot more, smaller schools. Maybe instead of one big school China has two dozen smaller one scatter around the country.
In the madgic world you dosn't need translators .
It would be nice if there was one in Argentina. So that the language barrier wouldn't be a thing for the other countries. It would still suck for Guiana (English), Suriname (they have like, 4 official languages, I'm not sure if Spanish is one of them) and French Guiana (obviously, French-speakers) inhabitants.
@@alexanderbrusewitz5088 yes you do. in the goblet of fire, fudge cannot speak to the bulgarian minister of magic, oblansk, because he can’t speak bulgarian and oblansk can’t (or pretends not to) speak english. barty crouch senior is esteemed for being able to speak many different languages and helps fudge to translate english and bulgarian. so yes, even in the magic world, translators are needed.
I think that the South American wizards are probably expected to know both Spanish and Portuguese, at least in wizarding families. They probably have their own Pureblood families and traditions. Probably a different case for muggleborns though...
I find it hard to picture a brazilian school where the students wear robes in the middle of the amazon forest, a really hot and humid place. Besides that, it be interesting to see how the structure would look like
I mean, it’s a magical school, I’m sure they have spells and enchantments for that, kinda like how hogwarts has snow a lot and no inside heat but the students never freeze to death.
@@tater4442 ikr? Pretty self evident, i think. 🤣
@@tater4442 Fireplaces aren't only used for floo travel. They're used for heating, and heating charms are taught to the students. The uniforms - at least the boys' uniforms - would be fairly warm (I've seen references to summer and winter uniforms). One reason for curtains around the beds is to help keep body heat in at night.
Actually, I think it depends of the type of the cloth of the robe. First, if you entry in Amazon Forest you gonna use long clothes, to protect of mosquitoes. And in Brazil to wear uniform is very common and the most common uniform is a t-shirt and pants (to boys and to girls, the difference is that usually the girls use a legging). And isn't a very cold uniform, lol.
THEY HAVE MAGIC IM SURE THE WHOLE CAMPUS RUNS ON MAGICAL AC LOL COME ON NOW IN A MAGICAL WORLD AND YOU STILL THINK WITH FIRRST WORLD MINDSET LMAO
I’d definitely attend Uagadou…I mean just imagine how convenient learning wandless magic would be? as opposed to wands that can break like Ron’s did. Or how they can turn on its owner…like nah im just gonna use my hands lol
edit: I cannot believe people are still replying to this comment
Agreed. I also think wands are the reason wizards are becoming less powerful. Wands drastically increased power levels for a couple thousand years, but it would fall back to the pre wand levels eventually, the only difference being wizards now rely on them.
I agree.
Sounds boring
Yup . Black people and indigenous people never needed wands
@@crazyfacedfreak4603 it only increases power levels for European. Blacks and indigenous peoples never needed wands because the power / magic is internal. It increases as our knowledge of self increases it does not decrease with age neither. This is why many elders are seen as the most powerful of shamans because their life's lessons gave them wisdom also increasing their power/ magic
The Japanese school sounds interesting. Especially the robes growing and changing color.
if hogwort had used those robes the harry potter storrys would have been quite different that is for sure.
The question is could they stop the continous bombing during the battle there during world War 2?
I like that concept, but I'm just cringing each time I hear the name of it. I mean come on, Rowling, you're a better author than that... Calling the school literally "magic place"...
@@fuyumanatee9956 I agree, it has such a silly name >< so cringy
@@fuyumanatee9956 we're talking about the woman who name the only chinese character in the books Cho Chang and Lupin's name basically translates to wolfy mcwerewolf so I'm honestly not surprised.

There's a school called kaarmana it is Indian wizarding school

Is it just me or did anyone else wish Durmstrang & Beauxbatons played in the hogwarts quidditch cup during the tri wizard tourney.
Spain also had a magic school, unfortunately they didn't expect the Spanish inquisition.
problems of catholicism
@@awddfg Just kidding, all witches were burned in Protestant countries.
@@arsemex can't forget them ofc, salem witch trials
Nobody does
I’ve read that Spanish Wizarding students can go to Beauxbatons. So I don’t think there’s a Wizarding school in Spain.
The North American school on top of Mt Greylock - I grew up with a view of that mountain out of my bedroom windows. Always misty or snow covered or cloud covered. Very serene yet mysterious at the same time. Wish I had been invited to attend the school but I guess that wasn't meant to be.
GOSH omg so lucky
Apply
I still say based on location and lore it's closer to Rhode island than New York
Me too actually! I love it in summer with the Head on the side of the mountain is really well defined. But sadly I don't think there is enough room up there for a castle and dorms 😅, its really more of a big hill.
NERD!
Lol jk
I was invited to the Prestigious Cheyenne, located on the mountain of the same name.
It is a very militaristic like place. Heavily guarded by the latest in surveillance and combative tools.
It burrows deep underground for the secrecy and protection from the outside.
It was formed in 1960 in direct response to help and protect those of the continent from the possibilities of self-inflicted nuclear burns the muggles would possibly inflect against each other.
They specialize in survival, security, surveillance, and secrecy. The four S’es.
The entrance starts at a tunnel under the mountain, and leads to massive heavy doors, able to take any kind of direct attack.
Its even able to sustain itself for a prolonged period of time locked up with no access.
Its amazing.
:3
China and India both definitely need their own schools, just given the populations there. And I can imagine a lot of places having their own schools that are just not officially recognized because they don't have a balanced education or particularly high grades for their students.
yea thats a very good point, though considering how big they are and that they do have pretty standardized muggle education in those countries they would probably have some established magical education system. You would think in india a similar situation to ilvermorny would happen through colonization. And China has been around forever with a lot of various societies/cultures and mythical lore so you would think for sure someone would have established something there.
@@CHLOCHLOLP Um, just to make this point quickly. India was not advanced through colonization. They were buildings magnificent cities, roads and palaces when the British were still painting themselves blue and carrying spears. Honestly, there could totally be an Indian school that is years older than Hogwarts. It really needs to be explored.
I like to think that these 11 are just the bigger ones.
@@erikperhs_ Oh, that I already assume. The Harvards and Oxfords of the Wizarding world.
China would be a great place to have a school. They are rife with dragon tales and history, and the airbenders and water experts, as well as other elements, can bend space around them.
With the success of Hogwarts Legacy, perhaps we can get a series of games with stories set in the other schools.
Potential dlc perhaps
Honestly reading through the comments I find the biggest issue with all the other schools is that they were invented by one writer with her limited experience as a British woman and ultimately can't go into specifics on the other schools without them being inaccurate to the realities of the region for instance multiple languages for certain regions.
Another issue is as one person she can only write so much so having at least a small writing team focusing on side content based around developing a canon of other smaller schools and expanding upon the magical world at large would probably be pretty cool (kinda like the Star Wars expanded universe/ Star Wars Legends series).
Ya never know though things could potentially get better in terms of expanded lore with stuff like the video game Hogwarts Legacy coming since I can only imagine more writers (that are less controversial) are being given permission to expand on official canon.
One thing in particular I'd like to see (as an American) would be a potential redesign of Ilvermorny to look more like an actual early American building rather than a castle cause a castle can only ever look like something from another country because America just doesn't have castles we have some gorgeous old buildings but no castles they could even take inspiration from some of the oldest schools in the country like Harvard, Penn, Yale, Dartmouth, Princeton, Columbia, etc imo that would be frickin awesome.
Another thing I'd find cool would be if another school were added in America with how absolutely giant the country is and there could be a Canadian specific school that's like a sister school to Beauxbatons since there's a pretty large amount of French speakers in Canada in fact kinda surprised Canada hasn't already had a school made considering they share a monarchy with the UK.
Another cool thing that could be explored in general would be sister schools that share a common language so witches and wizards could travel and visit somewhere similar but different.
I dunno I just have a lot of thoughts on the subject.
Very true about the limit of Rowling part. I’m Chinese, studied and lived in the US for years, and then studied and worked in the UK for years. I was quite oblivious about how many different countries and cultures there are in Europe, because size wise the countries are quite compact. But then as I’m working in UK, I also feel like maybe British people don’t have a good sense of scales of countries. The company I work for produces kid products, and I’ve noticed some maps for kids sort of makes European look really big in comparison to other continents, and introduces really in detail about the differences in Europe, which makes total sense. But that does give an effect of seeing the differences and nuances in Europe, but not aware of the world perspective of that. So when it comes to making stories about other countries, it’s really easy to see that she addresses ‘ooo these are so different and there’s no way to put these together’ in Europe, while seeing other places as ‘hmm these look about the same, maybe they go together well’.
On the other hand, though, I think these 11 might make real world sense actually, because whatever ‘international regulation’ in real life, very likely won’t be that international. The policies, criteria and regulations are going to be biased based on the country that ‘international’ thing was founded. So it’s also very likely this ‘great 11’ thing is just fond by British, as a sum of the information they can collect. The selecting process of ‘formal schools’ might not be applicable for many other countries, so their schools might not even bother to join. Not to mention the paradigm differences across the world. In Europe they might see it as wizard, while in China the ‘wizards’ might see themselves as ‘god communicators’ or even maybe just gods, and just won’t be joining the wizard thing (like maybe because there were never a witch hunt in China back in the history. Instead, even in the reality now in northern China, there are still people practicing superstitious things, and they are roughly respected and awed casually by people. And people also associate practicing Taoism vaguely with superstitious and usually with a respect attitude. And Taoism roughly is very naturalist, calm and peaceful. Wizards in China might just not really want to be together with combative British wizards.
(and also in casual Chinese people’s daily religions, our relationships with gods sort of more similar to people and government. If we ask for rain and the rain god didn’t rain in Beijing’s traditional religion, we tie the god’s statue and burn the statue in front of its temple to punish the god for not doing its job properly😂. So it’s possible the wizards in China actually work as gods in China.
Imagine a well established governing system, and it takes 30 wizards as a team to regulate the local weather. And they receive currencies as people burn scents. Sometimes they get tips when people burn more scents. And there would also be a team of 15 wizards running the dating and love department, where they have a developed sorting system to organize people’s daily love wishes, and regulate it so they can look into those cases and provide helps. Those systems might started when one witch met a muggle with dating problems. She wanted to help her, but didn’t want to show her superpower, so she prompted the muggle in her mind. Afterwards she felt a huge sense of accomplishment and felt it so rewarding. So she started her journey to help people, and gathered a group a wizards doing so with her on the go. Eventually this grew into something. The muggles also sense there’re something helping them, so started to leave food and money at designated places, and some business-minded wizards invented ways to turn this into an economic model.
So wizards in China might just live in very different social systems and have very different social dynamics with muggles than the European wizards. They focused on so different things in magic that they just don’t find British wizard system apply to them.)
@@thisisaname822 This is exactly what I meant you have a very different perspective to what JK Rowling does because she isn't Chinese so she wouldn't be able to go into great detail of what the Chinese Wizarding system is like because she only has her experiences to work from.
If there were many writers of different ethnicity and cultures they could combine their knowledge to expand upon the existing lore of the Wizarding world in a thoughtful and more importantly accurate way.
I can just imagine all the interesting stories people could come up with based on their culture and experiences.
Pottermore need to give us images of the schools architecture cause now I’m so curious of how the schools really look ! We need more of these
Just like any various country architecture...Durmstrang looking Nordic kinda Viking style (cuz Bulgarian it would be hilarious)
The Brazilian and african ones with jungle colours the first and safari ones the second probably like those Zulu houses.
It would be more interesting whether all of them are monountains though because if they are not it would look kinda silly.
South american fans mostly agree the school looks like the myths of El Dorado, a Pure Gold ginormous civilization/temple, holding mesoamerican architecture inspired by the incans, mayans and aztecs
We need a movie specifically about Ilvermorny
Beauxbatons would most likely be built in French Baroque or Renaissance fashion, only taken to the degree our real world monarchs could only dream of achieving.
@@AndorRadnailike the Paris town houses??
Ilvermorny is such a wholesome story, sad but really wholesome.
If anyone hasn’t seen it, I highly recommend it.
Where can I watch?
@@obvjaime, “Ilvermorny Origins Explained (American Hogwarts) - A story by J.K. Rowling” - posted by the CZcamsr MovieFlame.
I would love to see more of this school to be honest, it would be so cool if they released movies or a TV series settled in ilvermorny
There were talks on a series of books based on the house, but unfortunately, since Rowling basically did a poor job of her usage of mostly Native American lore and magic with a mostly white list of characters; it was deemed too problematic to push forward.
@@RealmsMedia, it’s a very short story, it can be tweaked.
Timecodes:
2:30 Castelobruxo - Brazil
4:05 Koldovstoretz - Russia
5:25 Durmstrang - North Europe
7:00 Ilvermorny - North America
9:12 Beaubatons - France
10:35 Mahoutokoro - Japan
12:43 Uagadou - Uganda
14:27 Hogwarts - United Kingdom
It's called a time stamp
8/11 schools
There would definitely be a Mexican wizarding school which would teach stuff like cooking magic, herbolary, lockpicking, building magic, sneak magic and so on. Most probably it wouldn’t be officially recognized but still would be cool and fun to go to.
Yeah. I can picture it being Aztec inspired with the architecture
yes
We have some nahuales and alebrijes 💫
Tibetan school: no artifacts, no wands, only self-perfecrion and during the wars, looking how other magical nations try to get you out of your mountains
USSR school(before 90s happened): destroyed all noble houses, got into conflict with all neighbors and isolated from them, and tried to research how to build magical post-scarcity. Probably, no information because of total secrecy.
I also think it would have a Mayan/Aztec architectural theme
I would go to any school of magic that would send an invitation.
They all sound amazing.
Dito
except Hogwart (highest probalities of dieing)
Me too
Nobody:
Japanese Hermione showing off her gold robes: I DID TERRIBLE, I GOT A 99.9% 😭
The fact that Castelobruxo was founded before the colony makes me think the type of magic being taught there would mix with indigenous and chamanic knowledge, radically differing from European magic, such as what is described in Uagadou. Definitely would go there.
*Shamanic
As an American Potterhead, I would love to see more information on Ilvermorny. Honestly anything on it. A new book series, Movies that focus solely on it, even a Video Game would be amazing.
Why was Hermoine worried about being expelled if she could go to any of these school?
who says she could go to any of these
also why didnt Hagrid just transfer to one of them?
i don't think she could go to them. first of all, Durmstrang only takes pure-bloods so that's not an option for her and I think it's quite clear that British wizards can only go to Hogwarts, after all they received a letter from Hogwarts only. not to mention the language barrier or whether she even knew about these in year 1
She couldn't meet Harry or Ron there though
@@quantumimmortality551 Perhaps news spread quickly about the Chamber of Secrets that year and the other schools were apprehensive about enrolling Hagrid
I find it odd that they would choose Japan over China for a wizarding school. Chinese folklore is filled with references of dragons and other mystical (if not magical) creatures that could easily be incorporated into the Wizarding World. Considering the Chinese civilization goes back as one of the first organized human cultures, you'd think it would make sense an ancient school would be there, and the fact that most of the surrounding Asian cultures take many elements from Chinese culture.
The same goes with you'd think there would be a school in and around the cradle of the ancient world of Egypt, Rome, Greece or Babylon where there are many tales of magical creatures and beasts.
My head cannon is that there is a Chinese magic school.
But they don’t communicate with the rest of them and live secluded in a sort of sect.
So they don’t register themselves with the international of wizards.
Perhaps they even don’t call themselves wizards in the first place. Using marshal arts and practicing Taoist ideals.
Odds are it was wiped out/moved during the Mongol invasion. Probably lost to the Mongol Shamans and the Chinese(and other south east asian wizards) wizards went to Japan. Both times the Mongols try and invade Japan, massive storms wreck the entire fleet.
Same with the Roman/Babylon one. The Library of Alexandria was probably an old wizard school that was destroyed, the Tower of Babel being a wizards school (thinking they knew more than god, at least in the eyes of the muggles living around the tower.). Or Atlantis could have been the Mediteranean magic school and it sunk.
same!
"many wizards and witches go homeschooled"now that make sense I think that every country has wizarding world despite not having a official school like London has buildings and places only wizards could see and Go in for centuries,so does other countries like Greece,Italy, Egypt,Ireland e.t.c(both& ancient and "modern" for all countries).
Yeah but China had a bad habit of being torn apart by Wars invasions and so much more. And then when the cultural revolution came with Chairman Mao it would have never stood a chance. Even Russia had more freedoms as the Soviet Union and communist China had. So I think it would have been a safer place to put it in Japan. Japan also had a long tradition of mystical creatures and Sorcerers and whatnot and it was more isolated. So I can I can understand why Japan instead of China.
In Brazil we have the opportunity to experience the wizarding world, but in a different way. Since the organisers don’t have Warner’s license to use the name, they have to change it a bit. But you can still go to a castle in São Paulo, experiences classes, share a room with your colleagues and have your own wand. It’s simply amazing. It’s called EMB (Escola de Magia e Bruxaria).
I really wish we knew more about Durmstrang, there's so much mystery about it that it's a shame not to explore it further, curriculum, staff, students (famous and infamous), history and just why the school is so secretive about its position. What sort of secrets is Durmstrang hiding?
I hope Rowling will one day lift the veil on some of these mysteries.
The Australian school is called snakebinder and is found in the southern mountains, protected by enchantments. It was founded by a British wizard who was a convict that came to Australia, he found other witches and wizards and taught the. He then made an actual school and died there. There us also a secret room told to hold many treasures and his ghost. Another ghost is of a married couple who help lost students find their classes. You can ski on certain weekends if it's not snowing.
As an Australian, assuming we are creating unofficial information, we should add Aboringinal culture as real creatures that are known to the Australian wizarding kind but are "stories told" to the normal observer.
We could implement the protection of the school being in an Aboriginal protected land as they through my straight off the top of my head "Are knowledgeable of magic although not everyone of them are magical, they are accepting culture of magic and use their lands to protect the school" I think this would be a fun way of bringing Aboriginal folk lore into a magical world, from the rainbow serpent to the Yowie. Only after this British wizard who came as a convict recognised that these people seen magic but was untamed to them as they had no idea that it was special, thinking it nothing more than just what has always been.
This Convict turned free man found a new refuge in teaching the Aboriginal people what it was they were dealing with.
They then started a school as to teach the enlightened Aboriginals came from far and wide to harness their skills, again a very few numbers of which had magic. The culture just completely accepting of it, as more convicts arrived this ex convict British wizard would monitor those who arrived who displayed magical traits and offered them access to the school of Snakebinder.
As the years passed and Australia grew independent the school was moved to an Aboriginal reserve one far from seeing eyes placed under a clock of invisibility and other magical defences, the school now thriving under tutelage of multiple experts grown from within the Australian magical sphere, and including a special class as scene no where else "Ancient Aboriginal Magic and the Beasts within" teaching future Australian Witches and Wizards the threats that exist unique to Australia and how to subdue and if necessary defeat them using passed down knowledge from the Ancient Aboriginal Witches and Wizards.
I think that would be my take on this, living in Darwin and learning about Aboriginal stories of beasts that exist that are so fantastical and magical it would definitely suit the lore of a school down under.
I don't know of any official Australian magic school, if its unofficial or has no information, I think the above would work magically in my opinion.
@@markredacted8547 That's quite an interesting description. I will be waiting for your book to come out: Aboriginal Witches etc. The one you mentioned above.
@@markredacted8547 what I said isn't unofficial I read it on pottermore
One would hope a small place called Crystal Mountain would be seriously considered for magic cultivation. Maybe wishful thinking.
I honestly thought that the Australian School would be at the exact location of Uluru and would look like the giant rock to muggles
Ilvermony. Not only am I closer to that school, but it has such an intriguing backstory that I'd love to see made into a movie/show some day.
I would have attended this school too because of proximity.
What's your house . Mines is thunderbird . In hogwarts I'm a ravenclaw
@@kaleahcollins4567 According to the Wizarding World website, I'm a Hufflepuff, which is what I expected and am perfectly fine with. I wasn't able to find an official quiz, but if the one I took is accurate, I'm a Horned Serpent.
@@kaleahcollins4567 I'm a Ravenclaw and Horned Serpent.
You in America too?
There is definitely an *Indian* wizarding school in Himalayan mountains...
Comment the characteristics of this school...
I think we specialise in herbology and portions (as ayurvedic medicine is prevalent in India)...
There isn't definitely one unless JK Rowling explicitly says there is
@@masrr3678She gave us a hint by saying that there are schools arround the world but aren't recognised much.
Something interesting I think that Rowling did with Mahutukuro is it sounds a lot like "Maho-Tokoro" Which pretty much means Magic Place in Japanese.
Castelobruxo is just literally "witch/wizard castle" lol
Honestly, I’ve always been super curious about everything beyond the Wizarding World in the UK. Obviously we got little glimpses in the goblet of fire of the idea of there being other Wizarding schools and of course fantastic beasts showing us magical society in the US way back in the 1920s… But I feel like it’s still just scratching the surface
It would be so cool if they released movies or shows settled in the other schools
ive always wanted to see the medieval wizarding world on film
I was looking forward to see if there is a school for magic in Romania. It was mentioned that Charlie Weasley is learning with dragons here and J.K Rowling wanted to write about the vampires from Romania too, but left that fragment unwritten.
I'm so disappointed we'll never get books and movies on the rest of these schools and communities. When the first HP book came out I thought it was going to be so much larger than it was.
Honestly there should be many more, china, india, greece, Egypt and persia. These are ancient civilizations and would have schools even older than hogwarts. Persian school of magic would be well versed in alchemy and they would wear robes with gold and silver threads
What about Israel?
The magic that they teach could draw from Jewish mystical traditions such as Cabana.
What is interesting about Durmstrang is that the name is a play on the German Sturm & Drang, a romantic movement in literature which placed importance on expressing extreme emotions
The name of the successor of its founder „Munter“ sounds also Germanic. But don’t know if there is anything to it.
As an Australian I would kill to learn more about the Australian school. The houses and uniform, if it’s inspired or created by the indigenous community of Australia, I would love to know
I could imagine it underneath Uluru
I would literally kill someone to learn, I asked my Torres Strait Islander friend and she says that she thinks the Aboriginal Australian stories could be reference to early magical people or creatures like Mimi spirits
Me too and I’m not even Australian I’m Asian
The information on these schools kinda just makes it glaringly obvious how little JK actually knows of other cultures outside of the UK. I’d love to see these schools and magical countries further expanded on by more knowledgeable people
As a Brazilian (and born in a state that's actually in Amazon rainforest) I would be soooo happy in Castelobruxo!! And I'm sure that if I was a witch I'd be very interested in magizoology so it makes so much sense to me ^^
Just judging by theme of having at least one school per continent/region, I would have to take a guess that the last two schools are located in the Middle East and India as those are both culturally and geographically, very different than the school in japan and may even have some different ways of using magic as well.

My bet is that JK would probably just bunch Mediterranean and Asia into one school on the western coast of Asia. And make another one in Europe. It has been said that homeschooling and smaller schools existed. But considering her narrow opinions and stereotypes about the world, I wouldn't be suprised, if India was still influenced by Hogwarts and other school would reflect the political split even more.
Imho, Chinese and Japanese schools are different
And China+India are probably one low-magic zone (since Uagadou is world's biggest school), or place of genocide/ isolationism/worse
I don’t know why but imagine if they made an anime of the Japanese wizarding school i think it would be interesting to watch

I always feel a little disappointed when remembering there are so few recognized wizarding schools. I always liked the idea of many different wizarding schools. Even though there were only three named European (I am from Europe so I mainly focused on that continent) ones at the time, I always thought there were also Spanish, German or Italian schools, which were just not part of the triwizard tournament. But when it was stated that Durmstrang and Beauxbatons were just a personification of Eastern and Western Europe. I felt very sad (and a bit offended) that all other regions of the world were just lumped together.
An remember they are mono gender schools...so in Western Europe there are no male wizzards an in Eastern Europe no witches! .. a little disappointing at least!
I have read about a german school in the Black Forest, but I can't recall where that was. And as an author you probably focus on the imediate surroundings of your story and just tack on new information "that you have written at the beginning" to make a larger world or eradicate eroors...
Most wizards/witches outside of those 11 countries homeschool according to the wiki.
@@wassermann2911976 That was actually a movie only thing, though I agree it was a very nonsensical decision to portrey the schools that way.
@@kyleellis1825 I know that, but be honest that's not really something that you want to imagine, if you wanted to be a wizard and had just read about a place like Hogwarts.

Thanks for making this video I always wondered what other schools or organizations were out there since I never watched the Fantastic Beast series
Of the couple undisclosed locations I feel like India and Mesopotamia (Iraq) would be great options. The school in Mesopotamia could be the oldest school. Make it like 5000 years old or something. There’s so much cool stuff about Indian culture as well. Putting a school in the heart of that just seems like a no-brainer! I feel like a school in Tibet (China) would be cool too! Maybe make the school what the muggles call Shangri-la! Have the story of why muggles know about it include one of the students bringing a few muggle friends there.
In the areas where there's no school nearby and most wizards and witches simply home-school their children; what happens with muggle-born children?
Good question.
Hopefully the muggle born children don't become an Obscurus.
@@christinaa1598 doubtful. Obscurials are usually a result of magic being forcibly suppressed. If the parents don't know that there's magic even in existence, they couldn't really suppress it. They just be freaked out, and maybe think their child is demon possessed or something.
People who think they're psychic/have weird talents or skills/heal faster/always look good/something else.
This was a fun video :)
Would love to see one on the history of the different areas of study in the wizarding world.
It would be so cool to have a series on the tri wizard tournament over the years, the different kinds of extreme magical challenges, the winners , the stories behind the winners (going back to the two other schools).
And for sure also Hogwart’s interactions with the other schools around the world in other wizarding rivalries.
I’m surprised that they didn’t mention anything about a magic school in Hellas🇬🇷 even though in the magical world many creatures have their origin in our country and many wizards (particularly dark wizard) came from here… 🤷🏻♂️
I imagine our magical school to be named Ακαδημία Μαγείας «akadimía magías»
= academy of Magic since the word Academy is Hellenic or school because this also comes form the term σχολείο/scholío which means school.
It might be found on the top of Mount Olympus where the ancient Hellenes believed that no one could reach because it was the home of the Gods.
Imagine it as a huge white marble palace with Hellenic architecture on the top of Olympus surrounded in clouds.
The houses could be three, six or nine… those numbers are appearing very usually in Hellenic folklore, myths and traditions but six or nine Houses… a bit too much?!
12 (as the Olympian Gods) would also be an exaggeration…
And I cannot imagine what traits the House of Aphrodite would have😏😏😁😁
If the Houses were four like Hogwarts they could be:
*1. The House of Athéna*
Wisdom, learning, courage
*2. The House of Ares*
Cunning, chivalry, ambition
*3. The House of Apollo*
Creativity, artistic nature, insight (Apollo was the god of light, music, arts and divination)
*4. The house of Hestia*
Hardworking, patience, perseverance
Or, they could be named after mythological creatures of the Hellenic mythology:
*1. House of Phoenix*
*2. House of Centaur*
*3. House of Basilisk*
*4. House of Pegasus*
The founder of the Academy could be Κίρκη/kírki = Circe, a famous witch from the Hellenic mythology, or perhaps Εκάτη/ekáti, the goddess Hecate, the goddess of witchcraft in our mythology.
Even though we have many old dark wizards originated form our country (Ekrizdis, Herpo the foul) we could also have many wizards that they were good in philosophy> creating spells
Medics > potions
History > magical historians
Politics > wizards helping to the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy
Inventors > pioneer magical inventions

The idea of the North America school being a castle is so strange, but I love the backstory of it lol. A mansion or massive plantation would make more sense though.
Google "Biltmore Estate in N.C. USA"
If you consider the largest cities throughout history then you have to consider Constantinople (Istanbul), Rome, Alexandria, Indus Valley ( Northern India or Pakistan), China and Mali. If you look at places with a highly magical setting then Mt. Kailash (Tibet and source of the four greatest rivers in Asia), Mt. Kilimanjaro, Ethiopia, A number of sacred spots in Turkey and Greece, Taos NM USA, Ireland, Lake Baikal Russia, Mt Fuji, Ayer’s Rock or the Kimberly in Australia, Machu Pichu, (sp?) and many others. I don’t think it makes sense to have so many in Europe considering the relatively low population throughout history.
Uagadou sounds the most exciting. A wandless animagus has to be a whole nother level of inconspicuous lol

I think there could be a Middle Eastern Wizarding School, and a Chinese Wizarding School as well.

Middle East and China are very good possibilities. I would also say India.
Lmao not India

@@felidaebi6239 back before I've researched and found out that there WAS also a wizarding school in Bangladesh so maybe Indian wizards & witches also attends there..

魔法所→まほうところ→mahoutokoro
MAH - hoe - toe - koh - roh
In Japanese phoenetics, it is common for extended vowel sounds for "oh" (お) and "eh" (え) to resolve to "u" (う) and "i" (い) respectively. For example:
Clock -> 時計 -> とけい -> to·ke·i :: The "i" at the end is semi-silent, as it is part of the "eh" sound of *ke*.
Magic -> 魔法 -> まほう -> ma·ho·u :: The "u" at the end is semi-silent, as it is part of the "oh" sound of *ho*.
As you can see, this causes some pronunciative confusion in transliteration under the Hepburn system.
For now, just treat it as a long-form vowel "oh", and for authenticity, pull the back of the tongue back when sounding it.
There's a reason the Asian monk saying "hoohhhhh" sounds so stereotypically Asian. It's a vowel form ubiquitous across east Asia.
I’m always so confused by Durmstrang as a Scandinavian. It’s always said to be in the far north of Europe which clearly is Scandinavia/the Nordics but it’s often connected to Bulgaria and I’ve seen it placed there on many maps, which is not northern Europe at all. The names of the students and the uniforms are also very Slavic rather than Norse, and Russia already has a school (not surprised though with JK’s history of cultural ignorance and stereotypes). I think it’d be cool to have a wizarding school up here, maybe in the Scandics, on Svalbard, some other island further south since we have so many or hidden by magic in an old fortress :)
I thought it was Russia (maybe northern Russia) which would apply to all of that (north and Slavic).
I think it’s stated to be in northen Sweden or Norway and they way Krum described the location it sounds like a mix of the two. Also we only get Krums name and Kakaroff is just the headmaster at the time, so no all of the students and teachers there do not have slavic sounding names. The coat of arms feels german and quite a lot of the ones in Sweden also have Eagles and Griffins, so fairly accurate. I think some of the animals of the crest corresponds to ones found in a swedish one as well. Sure some more Scandinavian names and maybe norse magic could have been implemented, but I am glad she skipped ”viking themed” almost all together, that feels overdone, cliché and sterotypical. However the Durmstrang ship could be a nod to Nagelfar, the ship from norse mythology.
I wonder what Rowling had against the Nordics. Durmstrang, the Dedicated School For Dark Arts(tm) is somewhere up in the Scandinavia and then there's Koldovstoretz - right down the road - in Eastern Finland/Karelia being all weird, Sami/finno-ugric/uralic mythology inspired mix-and-match Place For Weird (prolly 24/7 drunk/drugged on 'shrooms) wizarding traditions...
the magical community of scandinavia did it this way to confuse you to further hide the school. It's working.
And Krum plays Quidditch for Bulgaria isn’t he?
I guess the other three schools that JK hasn't revealed the information yet would probably located in, between, China, India, Southeast Asia (maybe in Thailand or Cambodia), or Australia.
I loved this.Lots of interesting information
This is another example of why this channel is the LEADING channel when it comes to HP folklore. Outstanding job!
As for the unnamed wizarding schools j.k.rowling is probably trying to figure out what to name and also figure out where in the wizarding world to put them and also who created those wizarding schools and their houses and the sorting ceremony along with who is in charge of what subject to teach and how many years that they have to go through before they could be called a wizard or witch
Awesome video. Small inquiry, seem to remember mentioning of another wizarding school in Goblet of Fire when Harry was walking around at the Quidditch world cup. Like there was a witch wearing a shirt or cloak or something referencing the 'American Salem Institute' - could be wrong.
That’s a school as well, they’re just not an official school recognized by the international confederation of wizards. Thanks for watching!
Movies based on each of these would be so much wizarding content 💗
As an Australian, I would hopefully go to the Aussie school. I believe it's probably somewhere on Australia’s east coast, so it's easier for the New Zealand students to get to as well. It would have been originally formed between Aboriginal and Maori New Zealanders to attend, but as Australia is the larger country, it would be easier to find somewhere to hide it. Later on once white-man arrived, and all the crap died down between the invaders and indigenous groups of both counties, the would have started to include witches and wizards from non-indigenous families. How long after the fighting stopped though would be up for debate.
Care to visit *Kurrajong School for Thaumaturgy* (it's on Facebook), hidden near the center of the country? The school could do with some local input.
I can tell there is a great potential there, my friend!
Most likely the north-eastern section, considering the existence of several island archipelagos existing north east of Australia.
Would love a book series based around one of these schools and a new main character.. gah the possibilities.
I think that Uagadou might be the coolest of the eleven! This was a fascinating video! I'm a Pukwudgie from Ilevormorny
Awesome video 📹 👏
It is quite unusual that none of those schools are in India, which is the land of mysticism and magic even from a muggle perspective.
It's possible that one of the schools we don't know anything about could be located somewhere in India.
@ never haha
There is a school called Karmaaana wizarding school in Bhangarh fort Rajasthan. Not sure if it is fan fic. However, It is small school teaching wandless magic & I believe most Indian witches and wizards are homeschooled since its a small school in a largely populated country.
I agree!
That’s fan fiction for sure
African magic school seems to be the most *Adventegeous* whereas they teach wandless Magic

@@HarryPotterTheory the fact that the african school specifically teaches the most unique and strongest variants and forms of magic is simply epix

There will probably be an Egyptian school as the history is there for it. And would be cool to have like a pyramid type school ;]

@@mechavos4066 yeah you are right. But i thought i would be a way better name for a school since "творец" seems dumb to me when you could have named it "дворец" просто тупо
Over last few days I was searching for the 11 schools desperately... But didn't get more than 8 schools 😢.. Thanks for the vdo ❤
Im guessing you've watched movie flame, Harry Potter folklore, and many more
About Koldovstoretz... I think, miss Rowling can use a legend of Kitezh-grad to make background for russian school. By legend, Kitezh was a big city on Svetloyar lake in Nizhegorodsky oblast, which sank in the lake's waters when Batu-khan come with his army of mongols to capture and plunder the city. Some folklore researchers sometime says, the Kitezh-grad and Svetloyar lake is a "Russian Atlantis".
Definitely missed the mark by not having a Chinese or Indian school. Those cultures are classicly set up for being experts in potion-making. I mean I guess I could see if they were trying to avoid a stereotype of mysticism/exoticism, but China frankly makes more sense to me historically (and honestly marketing-wise. So much money missed out on the Chinese market there)
I like to imagine there are 2 campuses for the Australian Wizarding school, one somewhere around Uluru, the other around the Australian Defence Force Academy. Aboriginal tribes from around Uluru have been teaching their children magic for as long as they have existed, they believed Uluru was the source of their magic and therefore see it as sacred, other tribes feared magic, and exiled those who could preform magic, from there a white kangaroo would show them the way to safety, as most show magic from a young age they would follow the kangaroo as young children are inquisitive. When the British came to Australia, a wizard discovered the magical tribes in central Australia and helped establish the wizarding school of Uluru, This campus is for younger students, although it in not necessary and is small, since the Australian Ministry of Magic believes all students should have a muggle education, this teaches young wizards and witches about spirituality and traditional Australian magic. The uniform is light blue, and looks like a simple muggle school uniform, yet there is a blue overcoat for formal occasions. The second campus focuses on defensive, offensive, and European magic, also partnering with ADFA, this campus mainly has adults as a student body, and has a blue, military style uniform.
I think that there could easily be a Scandinavian school of wizardry. the Northern countries are very close and it has been seen before that they have boarding schools where young adults meet, mingle and are educated. They also had a kids version "eurovision" only for Scandinavia, just to mention some of the things the countries has done together - so it would be likely to see a Nordic Wizard School.
Scandinavia has Durmstrang. It was said that Durmstrang was in the Northern part of Scandinavia
@@tielphinstone3556 oh really? cool! I was sure it was in Romania or something, I need to listen more carefully
@@bitterlemonade7360 it is speculated that it is in Svalbard as Durmstrangs coat of arms is written in latin and cyrillic alphabet and Svalbard is part of Norway but a small part is also under russian jurisdiction.
@@bitterlemonade7360 i can see why you think it might be in Romania :D but it was just founded by a Bulgarian witch Nerida Vulchanova. And the school might accept students from all over Europe as Krum was bulgarian, Grindelwald from a german-speaking country and Malfoy also considered sending Draco to Durmstrang
I just can’t truly imagine that Durmstrang is located in the northern Norway or something like that.
Because the way the movie mainly portrait the students and headmaster, is not very Scandinavian. More Eastern Europe like, and why will Victor Krum. Attend a school so fare away from his home country?
And the founder she was from Eastern Europe, why start a school so long away from where she came from? And a thing I also don’t understand is.
The language barrier, if students are from so many countries.
Are there any charms that translate any thing said so a Norwegian student can understand an Albanian student?
For me as a Dane it’s sometimes hard to understand what one from Sweden or Norway are saying. And even more if it’s one from Island or The Faroese islands.
lets not forget Vince Clortho Public Schools for Wizards either! You rarely see young wizards use silencers on their wands.
A movie in on of those movies would be awesome!
Does anyone else find it odd that wands have to be registered in the US but are much less regulated in Europe? It's always seemed backward to the muggle world. The US has strict wand control laws but, in Europe, it is seems the right of wizards to keep and bear wands shall not be infringed.
JKR holds certain Views about the US, so of course she made it a tyrannical bureaucracy
@@SilentSooYun which is hilarious because england is way more regulated than America
At least in a fantasy world weapons should be controlled in the USA.

I am always puzzled about Durmstrang, because the canon doesn't make any sense.
There are always two things about the school which completely contradict. It is said
it is in the north where it is very cold. The country it is associated with is Bulgaria, which
has a mediterranian climate and is everything but northern Europe.
Well, they arrive in a submarine. I suppose their school actually never stays in one place for too long. Or maybe they have it on the North Pole, under the Ice, in a submarine. It's international. Viktor Krum is from Bulgaria, Karkaroff lived in UK (and the name sounds Russian, but Russia has its own school so...).
They all sound like great options, but I'll have to go with Uagadou. Wandless magic is so convenient.
It would be cool to get a movie in some of the other schools.
The possible 3 Locations of the other Official wizarding schools is somewhere in China and Arabia as well as Australia ,
The chinese wizarding school would somehow to be among the oldest over 2000 years old
@ China and India are not that very far from one another, The 3rd Fantastic beast movie Hints about a Wizarding government and a school located somewhere in Western China like Tibet and the Himalayas where the Yeti's are supposed to be
@ The Tomb Raider Series like to still call it Tibet, if Kamar Taj were to have anything to do with Harry potter then it be also possible that Zi Yuan from " The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emporor" could have also attended. and the Sanderson sisters attended Illvermorny.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the two unknown schools would be in Tibet and Sulawesi, and the Australian school, I have a suspicion that it may be in the exact location of Uluru (aka Ayers Rock)
Yeah, nah. The Australia school is too new to be one of the missing schools. *Kurrajong School for Thaumaturgy* is 'near' Uluru, but not too close. Too many tourists there. The school is underground, a bit over 200 km wsw of Uluru.
