[ ]Daily Prophet
The Daily Prophet is the most widely-read daily newspaper in Britain's wizard community. The articles include moving pictures. The Sunday edition is called The Sunday Prophet. Unfortunately, its journalistic integrity is somewhat lacking; it has been known to be more concerned about sales than about factual accuracy and is often a mouthpiece for the Ministry of Magic.

Cheif Editor: Open
Senior Quidditch correspondent: Ginny Weasley-Potter (Open)

[ ]Entrance Hall
Double oak front doors, opening to the west. Large, cavernous room, lit by torches, with ceiling so high it's barely visible. Wide marble staircase opposite the front doors (east wall) leads up to first floor. Double doors to the right (south wall) lead into the Great Hall. On the east wall are two doors, one on either side of the staircase. To the north of the staircase is a door leading down a flight of steps to the first dungeon level. To the south is a door leading to the Hufflepuff common room and the kitchens. On the left (north wall) is a door leading to a smaller antechamber where First Years wait to be sorted.

00
[ ]Great Hall
The Great Hall is entered by double doors to the right of the Entrance Hall. The Great Hall is a vast chamber that contains four long tables for each of the four Houses. Closest to the doors is the Slytherin table, followed by Ravenclaw, then Hufflepuff, and finally the Gryffindor table next to the far wall. On a raised platform at the front of the room is the High Table where the staffs dine. The ceiling is enchanted so that it mirrors the sky as it currently appears outside. There are also high mullioned windows around the room that show the grounds outside. Behind the High Table, there is a smaller antechamber with a fireplace and many portraits, where the champions of the Triwizard Tournament gathered for the first time.
00
[ ]Dungeons

00
[ ]Kitchens
The Hogwarts kitchens are located directly below the Great Hall and are just the same size. They have high ceilings and a great brick fireplace at one end. Mounds of brass pots and pans are heaped around the walls. There are preparation tables directly below the four house tables in the Hall above, and when the time comes for the food to be served, it is magically transported through the ceiling of the kitchen onto the plates. The kitchens are staffed by over a hundred house-elves. To get to the kitchens, take the door to the right of the main staircase in the entrance hall. Follow the corridor until you come to a painting of a bowl of fruit. Tickle the pear and it giggles and becomes a door handle.

[ ]Moaning Myrtle's Bathroom
The bathroom's wooden cubicles are worn and ill-maintained, and even the stone sinks are chipped. Like many of Hogwarts' rooms - including the opulent prefects' bathroom - the room is candle-lit, but the candles are in holders rather than a chandelier and there are not enough of them to light the room properly.

The sinks, which form a row under a large cracked and spotted mirror, have copper taps, one of which has a tiny snake scratched on the side.

[ ]Room of Requirement
Located on the seventh floor opposite an enormous tapestry depicting Barnabas the Barmy attempting to train trolls for the ballet, the Room of Requirement appears only when someone is in need of it. To make it appear, one must walk past its hidden entrance three times while concentrating on what is needed. The room will then appear, outfitted with whatever is required. To the Hogwarts house-elves it is also known as the Come and Go Room.

[ ]Trophy Room
Hogwarts has a trophy room where all the old awards, trophies, statues, cups, plates, shields, and medals are kept in crystal display cases. There is also a list of all the head boys and girls. It's adjacent to a long gallery full of suits of armor.
00
[ ]Library
The library contains tens of thousands of books on thousands of shelves. The different sections include an Invisibility Section, a section on dragons, and the Restricted Section at the very back, barred by a rope. Students need a signed note of permission from a teacher to peruse the Restricted Section, as it holds books about powerful Dark subject matter that is never taught at Hogwarts, and is only used by older students studying advanced Defence Against the Dark Arts. Books in the Hogwarts library may be put on hold and the student's name added to a waiting list. Chocolate and presumably, all other food and drinks are forbidden in the library, which closes at 8:00 p.m. Irma Pince is the librarian. She guards the books fiercely, and has been known to put unusual jinxes on the books, to make sure that they are not mistreated.

[ ]Front Gates
Hogwarts Castle is surrounded by mountains and is perched high atop a cliff overlooking a great black lake. When entering from the lake, a curtain of ivy hides a wide opening in the cliff face. A dark tunnel leads right under the castle into an underground harbour with a rocky beach and from there, a passageway in the rock leads to the front doors. The entrance on the road from Hogsmeade to around the lake is through a pair of wrought iron gates in the walls enclosing the grounds. On either side of the gates are two tall stone pillars, each topped with a winged boar. The Hogwarts grounds are extensive with sloping lawns, including flowerbeds, vegetable patches, and a Quidditch pitch, as well as the vast Forbidden Forest.

[ ]Forbidden Forest
The Forbidden Forest is a large, dark forest to the east of Hogwarts Castle. It is strictly forbidden to all students, except during Care of Magical Creatures lessons and, on rare occasions, detentions.


00
[ ]Black Lake
The lake is located on the south side of the castle, which stands on a cliff overlooking the water. It is about half a mile in diameter and the Hogwarts plumbing network drains into it. A number of magical creatures inhabit the lake, including a surprisingly friendly giant squid, often seen near the surface, a colony of merpeople inhabiting the bottom, and a population of grindylows.

[ ]Quidditch Pitch
The Quidditch pitch is where Quidditch games are held, and where teams practice. There are three golden hoops, about 50 feet high, at each end used for scoring, and stands surrounding it, providing seating for spectators. It houses the locker rooms for the four House teams and the offices of the four team captains. There are locker rooms off the grounds of the Quidditch pitch where team members change for practices and games.

[ ]Whomping Willow
The Whomping Willow is a very valuable magical tree on the Hogwarts grounds. The tree is extremely violent, striking viciously with its branches at anything that comes within reach.

Headmaster Albus Dumbledore planted the Willow to guard a secret passageway to the Shrieking Shack, a building in Hogsmeade.

[ ]Hogsmeade (10 sub-boards)
Hogsmeade is the only settlement in Great Britain inhabited solely by magical beings, and is located to the northwest of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The founder of Hogsmeade is Hengist of Woodcroft. Students of Hogwarts who are in their third year and above are permitted to visit Hogsmeade during scheduled visits, to shop and mingle with friends unchaperoned, as long as they have a signed permission slip from a parent or guardian. Mainly, students frequent a high street in the Village which contains the named specialty shops and pubs. Otherwise, they wander on to observe the infamous Shrieking Shack.

[ ]Diagon Alley (13 sub-boards)
Diagon Alley is on High street in London. It is accessible to the wizarding world, to which it is something of an economic hub, but hidden from Muggles. Muggles are allowed access to it if they need to accompany their Muggle-born magical children. If a wizard or witch needs something, chances are that it can be found in Diagon Alley.

The shopping district is home to Ollivander's, makers of magic wands since 382 BC (likely the country's primary supplier), as well as the goblin-run Gringotts Bank and Madam Malkin's Robes For All Occasions. Other establishments include Flourish & Blotts bookstore, Eeylops' Owl Emporium, Quality Quidditch Supplies and The Leaky Cauldron, a famous wizarding pub and inn.

[ ]St. Mungo's
Medics at the hospital are not called doctors, but are known as Healers or Mediwizards and wear lime-green robes. Founded by famous wizard Healer Mungo Bonham, St Mungo's is located in London. It was established to treat magical injuries or illnesses endemic to the Wizarding World. To enter the premises, one has to step through the window of what appears to be a derelict department store called Purge & Dowse Ltd. The exteriors of the hospital are red-bricked and dirty, which is the complete opposite of the interiors. Inside, everything is very neat and looks exactly as a hospital should. There are six floors. The emblem of St Mungo's is a magic wand crossed with a bone.

[ ]Little Hangleton
A Muggle village where Lord Voldemort's ansestors have resided in. The village occupies the floor of a valley, bounded by steep hills. Above the village on one side of the valley are a Church and cemetery, and higher still, the imposing Riddle House, the home of the deceased aristocratic Riddle family who were the chief landowners in the area. On the opposite side of the valley, the only dwelling appears to have been the dilapidated cottage which was the home of the Pure-blooded, anti-social descendants of Salazar Slytherin, the Gaunt family. The Gaunt cottage is set in a copse alongside a winding road which climbed out of the valley.

[ ]Outskirts of Tinworth, Cornwall (1 sub-board)
Upon the signature of the International Statute of Secrecy in 1689, wizards went into hiding for good. It was natural, perhaps, that they formed their own small communities within a community. Many small villages and hamlets attracted several magical families, who banded together for mutual support and protection. The villages of Tinworth in Cornwall, Upper Flagley in Yorkshire, and Ottery St. Catchpole on the south coast of England were notable homes to knots of Wizarding families who lived alongside tolerant and sometimes Confunded Muggles. Most celebrated of these half-magical dwelling places is, perhaps, Godric's Hollow.
00
[ ]Number 12, Grimmauld Place
Here lies the Headquarters for the Order, led by Harry Potter and others. Once owned by the Black family, Sirius had handed it over to the Order before his death. Many security measures are in place at Grimmauld Place (anti-Apparation charms). It is also Unplottable. It is disguised from Muggles and other interlopers.

Also during the Great Battle it was once taken over by Voldemort but fortunetly after his death was regained back by the Order.

[ ]France
France is a country whose metropolitan territory is located in Western Europe and that also comprises various overseas islands and territories located in other continents. Metropolitan France extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. French people often refer to Metropolitan France as L’Hexagone (The “Hexagon”) because of the geometric shape of its territory.

Also the home to a school known as Beauxbaton Academy of Magic that dates to 700 years of teaching.
00
[ ]Bulgaria
Bulgaria re-incarnates one of the oldest states in Europe, located in Southeastern Europe, bordering five other countries: Romania to the north (mostly along the Danube), Serbia and the Republic of Macedonia to the west, and Greece and Turkey to the south. The Black Sea defines the extent of the country to the east. Bulgaria comprises the classical regions of Moesia, Thrace, and Macedonia.

Bulgaria is the birthplace of Durmstrang Institute for Magical Learning and has been dated back to 700 years.

[ ]United States of America
The United States of America is a constitutional federal republic comprising fifty states and a federal district. The country is situated mostly in central North America, where its forty-eight contiguous states and Washington, D.C., the capital district, lie between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. The state of Alaska is in the northwest of the continent, with Canada to its east and Russia to the west across the Bering Strait, and the state of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific. The United States also possesses several territories, or insular areas, scattered around the Caribbean and Pacific.

It is also the home of a historical event known as the Salem Witch Trails. Over 150 people were arrested and imprisoned, with even more accused who were not formally pursued by the authorities. The two courts convicted twenty-nine people of the capital felony of witchcraft. Nineteen of the accused, fourteen women and five men, were hanged. Because of this the Salem Academy for Witchcraft was established.
