It is the only school in North America (so people in Canada and Mexico would go there) which means it's a pretty large school. The government started out as only governing the US but eventually expanded around the time of The Spanish-American War and the Panama Canal (the muggle population's increase in global affairs (and subsequent imperialism) during this time may or may not have been related to the recent imperialism the Wizards were involved in. The wizarding government took over Canada, Mexico, Cuba, and small parts of Asia (An Asian rebellion happened on the eve of World War II and Cuba was later relinquished).

Sorry for the history lesson ^_^'

NO no. that is what I want. The better I understand the lore of the world the better it is for me personally. How many students are we talking about. The combined population of North America is substantially higher than that of the United Kingdom. Is our ratio of Wizard to Muggle far smaller than in the UK?
