In England. In America, there's the Magical Congress of the United States of America, or, MACUSA, for short. There are Ministries and Congresses alike all over the world, where I come from.

Well, it's essentially our form of government; there are all sorts of branches and departments.

[He pauses as he considers how best to explain the Ministry to someone who doesn't know it.]

Magic, back home, is something of a secret from those who don't possess it themselves. We call them Muggles. We live among them and all of that, but we keep to ourselves, mostly. The Ministry helps oversee all of that.

[Newt conveniently doesn't mention all of the magical laws he's broken in his own time, especially the record number he likely reached in New York alone.]

Not all witches and wizards are a part of the Ministry, no, but it is the most popular of employers for us.

[At the mention of dragons, Newt brightens immensely, grinning wide. Aro can probably hear said grin through the crystal. Also, as always when discussing creatures, Newt throws caution to the wind, his enthusiasm overtaking common sense.]

Yes! We have a wide variety of magical creatures, actually. I study them for my work, as it turns out. I've been working on a book of them, and how to best protect them.

I've worked extensively with dragons, myself. They're magnificent creatures.
