Neville Longbottom was seen in a spat with Draco Malfoy.
Albus Dumbledore was spotted entering Hogsmede during odd hours of the night, presumably to visit his brother, Aberforth, who once ran into a spot of trouble due to some inappropriate behavior with goats according to Ministry records.

This should be your first stop! Here is where you can read our rules. There will be a quiz later. Also, in here you will find the plot, which is probably just as helpful as the rules!

THE SORTING HAT !
And now the Sorting Hat is here
and you all know the score:
I sort you into Houses
because that is what I'm for.
But this year I'll go further,
listen closely to my song:
though condemned I am to split you
still I worry that it's wrong,
though I must fulfill my duty
and must quarter every year
still I wonder whether sorting
may not bring the end I fear.
Oh, know the perils, read the signs,
the warning history shows,
for our Hogwarts is in danger
from external, deadly foes
and we must unite inside her
or we'll crumble from within
I have told you, I have warned you...
let the Sorting now begin.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Welcome to the first floor! There's tons of things you can do here. For starters, you can go to the Great Hall, roam the many hallways and classrooms (and perhaps hidden passage ways), or take one of the many staircases. Access to the Kitchens is also off the first floor, as well as access to the Hufflepuff Common Room!

Home to many, England is a small country and is most formally known as the tea drinking capital of the world. England offers much to see, from lovely beaches and walks through the coves in Cornwall and Torquay to the busy life style offered to those in the cities such as London and Liverpool.

SCOTLAND !
Scotland is known to those who live there as the violence capital of the world, even though that isn’t particularly true. Those inhabiting Scotland quite possibly speak their own language in which incoherence often occurs. Scotland is nice place to be; Perth being a key place to visit when it isn’t raining. So buy yourself an umbrella and Irn-bru and have a yehself a pure bonny time.

Wales. What can you really say about Wales? Wales is known as the place to go for sheep. Wales is a particularly small country not so far away from the neighboring Scotland and England. To get there you have to go across the Seven Bridge, which is where we advise you take your rabies and tetanus jabs. In all severity, however, Wales is a lovely place full of green hills and pleasant people.

IRELAND !
Ireland as a whole is a lovely place but it’s best not to upset the Irish when talking about Northern Ireland and Southern Ireland; it wouldn’t end well for you I can promise. Ireland offers plenty from the fast cities like Dublin and Belfast and the small wee towns like Ballykelly and Omargh. Currently at this time Ireland is having a little bit of a problem with conflicting groups like the Ulster Orange Brigade and the I.R.A. Best not get caught up in that business I can tell you.

Europe offers never-ending sites from the Eiffel Tower in France and the Leaning Tower of Pica in Italy. Europe is home to many groups of people, all of which will probably welcome you with open arms... except the Russians. Maybe not them.

AMERICA !

Before Gitmo, the economic crashes, or even 9/11, America was known as a thriving country, it's treasury in surplus under President Clinton. From the smog-polluted crime center of New York City to the shining hills of San Francisco, California, wherever you chose to make your home is beautiful - that is, if you feel like being patriotic. Just please, don't make it Wyoming.
