It's for the sake of storytelling simplicity. Otherwise a single school servicing an entire nation is actually bad worldbuilding from the get-go.

haha based eurocentric rowling

This map actually makes sense when you realize in universe not every witch or wizard go to a magic school, in fact most don't get that chance.

Some nations are inherently more capable of producing wizards than others. Cry about Jamaal/Pedro/Chang

The Handmaid's Tale

Season 1 was actually decent world building but gets retarded season 2 onwards. They clearly display lack of understanding of geopolitics and economics. I couldnt even get myself to finish season 2

>>214377255
to cast magic you need a soul, those schools have like 50 (white) students

Aussie wizards can't get to school because the abos siphon all the petrol from their flying cars

>>214377255
Isn't the idea of the magical university in-universe started by Hogwarts? Rest of the world could be dominated by different systems like apprenticeship or knowledge being passed from father to son. So there are only couple of schools like that in the world and they cover massive areas by default.

The wizard world must be full of incest families when you think about it. "Pure breeds" are just incest freaks
>>
>>214377767
No more than aristocratic families. Depending on how rare "magic gene" is it could range from habsburgs to not a problem at all.

scholarships are such frauds.
>WOW you won this prize that we are giving you to cut the bill that we are giving you. Dont you feel so lucky?
Its insulting, especially a tuition like 10%.

so that means all those people that speak different languages and are from nations that hate each other can go to the same school

>>214377255
Wizards raised from birth as wizards do not give one single shit about how the Muggle world works, or have Muggle sociopolitical views. This is kind of the whole point.
>>
>>214380313
In fact American wizards and witches actively resent the Muggle world for the Salem witch trials. Muggle Studies is considered a topic for the weirdos or wizards who want to smugly laugh at them

Did Rowling go too far with this one?
