What's going on?

Five years after He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named was obliterated taking
Britain’s last hero with him the Magical world has all but
disappeared. Those left with the task of being the remaining members
live quiet Muggle lives in the town of Hawkshead. Leaving the Muggle
world completely unaware of where they have disappeared to, which is
exactly how the small government organizing this mass conformity wants
it to be. Blending in is the last step to try and keep hold of the
strings that are the magical people. So that one day not too far off
they can slip back into the folds of obscurity and live a private
magic life once more.

The Ministry already in shambles with trying to reorganize itself lost
sight of the Muggle world and was exploded in late 1999. It took two
years for it to become a completely full blown circus. With the rise
in terrorism, a massively horrible economic depression, and two wars
the world is looking for something to blame. The Ministry of Britain
has been blamed by countless other magical governments who are now in
pieces, stuck in isolationism or in some cases fighting back. The
Muggle governments themselves, at least the ones who are largely in
the public eye and entrusted in keeping world peace, don’t outright
attack but instead some hard edged politicians are using it as
platform for all wrong. Hate groups spring up throughout England that
are particularly fierce in the countryside, doing what groups like the
National Society for the Stripping and Stopping of Magical Behavior
only wish they could do.

Hope isn’t gone. Even though magic is banned within the small town of
Hawkshead, acquired after the town fell into severe disrepair. The
Committee for Magical Awareness and Embracing lead and organized by a
few open citizens and Muggles campaign for a peaceful world for both
sides. Some content in their new lives of being cops, and clerks and
tour guides are fine with whatever happens while some of the young are
still restless and the growing number of people resentful to the
Muggles is not just pure blooded. Yet as things have settled will this
stale peace be disrupted by the killings of Muggles and an old face
returning, perhaps too afraid to put his shoes back on?

Note the village is a village and countryside of 6,000 strong.
Those in jail at the time were given a chance to reform or stay in
jail, those that stayed were shipped off to North Russia who agreed to
prisoners, as Canada who has become on slightly better off terms with
their nations Muggles agreed to take the mentally unfit. Many half
nationals and foreign nationals were forced back to their mother
countries while some of the rich escaped Britain over a year ago to be
able to live their magical lives freely. There has not been any more
than 25 immigrations in or out of the country for the past year and a
