Magistry

Magistry (sometimes spelled "Magistery) is an umbrella term for administrative organizations which act as the governing body of the magic society all over the world. It is common to speak of "the Magistry" when actually referring to the specific magistry of one's country, similar as to one may speak of "the government".

The purpose of a magistry is to regulate and enforce laws for the magical community, as well as keeping said community hidden from the Mundane world.
