Minister for Magic.

About Minister for Magic

The Ministry of Magic is a secret government of the British and Irish wizard community in the fictional universe of Harry Potter. It is led by the Minister for Magic, and is first mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Throughout the novels, it is regularly depicted as corrupt, elitist and completely incompetent, with its high-ranking officials blind to ominous events and unwilling to take action against threats to wizard society. It is shown to be a totalitarian wizard ethnostate that controls the rights of wizards, muggles, house elves, and all other sentient creatures with only the humans with magical abilities being able to decide the rights of all. In Order of the Phoenix, Dolores Umbridge was placed at Hogwarts to observe the happenings within the school, and prevent the spread of news concerning the return of Lord Voldemort. It reaches a zenith of corruption, before being effectively taken over by Lord Voldemort. At the end of the final book, following Lord Voldemort's death, Kingsley Shacklebolt is revealed to have become the Minister of Magic.
