All of the important Ministry staff have offices located here. This includes the Minister of Magic himself. Next to the ninth and tenth levels, this level has very high and very stringent security measures, just to ensure the Minister is protected.

Level Two of the Ministry is wholly consumed by the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. In addition to individual divisions and offices, there's a whole sector of cubicals set up for the Aurors to complete their paperwork from.

Level three is a very important level, one that's familiar to those being a tad inept at certain aspects of magic. The Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes deals with your every day explosions, as well as large scale melt downs and such.

Level four is all about the non-human sector of the Wizarding World. It focuses on three divisions: Beast, Being, and Spirit. Several fights have broken out in these corridors, due to the crossing of the three division namesakes.

This department works with magical governments of other countries, sets standards for trade, creates regulations for things like cauldron thickness, and works with other departments to orchestrate international events.

On Level Six of the Ministry of Magic lies the Department of Magical Transportation. This is the Department that handled the complicated problems of transporting folks to the World Cup, including setting up a network of Portkeys all over Britain and working out where it was safe to Apparate into the area without being seen.

The Department of Magical Games and Sports is undoubtedly the most fun level of the ministry. The entire level is shabby, but it's cinder block walls have been completely covered with various quidditch team regalia, such as pennants, posters, and moving photos.

The Atrium is a large hall with gilded fireplaces up and down both long walls, used for coming and going. The floor is polished dark wood and ceiling is peacock blue with golden symbols moving across it. The Fountain of Magical Brethren lies halfway down the Atrium.At the end of the Atrium is a set of golden gates, next to which is a security stand. A guard registers the wands of visitors.

Deep in the bowels of the Ministry of Magic, on the ninth level, lies the Department of Mysteries. Here wizards who are called Unspeakables go about researching some of the deepest mysteries of existence. They explore and experiment with these mysterious forces in various chambers which are clustered around a circular room lined with doors.

The Wizengamot Court Rooms are located in the depths of the Ministry, only accessible through staircases off the atrium that lead you through winding, dungeon-like corridors before reaching your destination. This is presumably for effect, because you're definitely feeling dark, gloomy, and depressed by the time you arrive.

Hidden beyond a brick wall located behind the Leaky Cauldron, are Diagon and Knockturn Allies. This huge cobblestone alleyway is jam packed with tons of shops. At the end of the alley stands a white marble building, which reads Gringotts Wizarding Bank. Off to one side of this alley you’ll find Knockturn Alley, a dark and dangerous place. The only establishment within this alley is Borgin and Burkes.

This alley can only be seen by true crooks, scoundrels, and Death Eaters. The alley is lined with dark shops, spanning from one side to the next. In the middle of the alley is a round garden piece. In the middle of the garden stands a tree that looks dead. The street itself is made of black cobblestone.

Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. The Knight Bus takes you anywhere you want to be in the Magical World. Be careful, this mode of transportation is not for the easily scared and the faint of heart.

Even though it doesn’t seem like it, wizards have a big presence in the Muggle world. Some live in the huge town of London, while others live on the peaceful country side. There are many magical locations in the muggle world that commoners have never laid eyes on, such as The Leaky Cauldron, and Platform Nine and Three Quarters.

Teams in Britain do not have their own home fields for matches. Instead, Quidditch stadiums have been erected on a number of deserted moors. Players and fans come from all over Britain to attend these matches. Various charms and magical shields have been used to prevent Muggles from accidentally stumbling across any stadiums.

England encompasses a rather large area, and each sector is as diverse as the next. You'll encounter anything from rural farms, to flowing hills, to prestigious estates. Many of the older families have large manors in the more secluded sections of England.
