The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts.

Asia is a continent in the eastern hemisphere.[4] The known wizarding nations that comprised it were Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Korea, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Syria, and Thailand.

Magical community

The Tibet region, the Chinese cities of Jixi and Nanchang, the Japanese town of Toyohashi and island of Minami Iwo Jima were known locations that house the Asian wizarding community. According to Goshawk's Guide to Herbology, there was a wizard in Nepal who grew gravity-resistant trees. The Assyria and Borneo regions were known for magical flora and fauna.[5]

The Flying carpet was the main source of transportation in South Asia. It was invented in Bangladesh, and was also widely used in India, Pakistan, Iran and Mongolia.[6]

Magical government

The known magical governing bodies in the continent were the Bangladeshi Ministry of Magic, the Chinese Ministry of Magic, the Indian Ministry of Magic, the Iranian Ministry of Magic, the Japanese Ministry of Magic, the Mongolian Ministry of Magic and the Pakistani Ministry of Magic.[6]

Magical education

Mahoutokoro School of Magic was the only known wizarding school in Asia so far, located in Japan.[3] It was the smallest of the main eleven wizarding schools.[3] It is not known if it accepted students from regional wizarding nations. It is also possible that Koldovstoretz, the Russian wizarding school, was located in Siberia, the Asian part of the country.

Magical games and sports

Aside the National Quidditch teams in the continent, the Japanese Toyohashi Tengu was one of the few Asian Quidditch teams that gained popularity as of the last century.[6]
