The Dominion of The British Ministry of Magic is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.211 billion British Wizards are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.

The very strong British Ministry of Magic economy, worth 543 trillion Galleons a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 66,239 Galleons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 214,079 per year while the poor average 15,488, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

Foreign musicians that Leader dislikes are turned away at the border, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The British Ministry of Magic's national animal is the Welsh Green Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The British Ministry of Magic is ranked 214,336^th in the world and 4,130^th in Artificial Solar System for Most Primitive, scoring -82.76 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
