"Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling recently updated fans with the new Wizarding schools in the United States.

On the official Pottermore fan-site and Twitter account, it was announced that the name for the new North American wizarding school is Ilvermony.

Some other schools will also be opened in Brazil, Japan and Africa.

"We're excited to announce Ilvermony is the name of the North #American wizarding school!" they wrote.

The same Twitter account gave fans information regarding each of the schools in Brazil, Japan and Africa.

"We've got all you could need to know about Castelobruxo, the wizarding school in Brazil," they wrote.

"The Brazilian school for magic, which takes students from all over South America, may be found hidden deep within the rainforest. The fabulous castle appears to be a ruin to the few Muggle eyes that have ever fallen upon it. Castelobruxo is an imposing square edifice of golden rock, often compared to a temple. Both building and grounds are protected by the Caipora, a small and furry spirit-beings who are extraordinarily mischievous and tricky, and who emerge under cover of night to watch over the students and the creatures who live in the forest," the publication noted.

Meanwhile, similar information about the other wizarding schools are also posted on their respective websites.

According to Yahoo, "The new pieces of writing confirm a few more details about the other schools. Mahoutokoro (Mah - hoot - o - koh - ro) is located by turbulent seas and has an "outstanding" Quidditch reputation, while students at Uagadou (wag-a-doo) learn to cast spells without wands. Brazil's Castelobruxo (cass-tell-o-broo-shoo), is protected by small, furry, forest-dwelling tricksters called Caipora."

In other news, "Harry Potter" is a seven-book series that chronicled the life of Harry (Daniel Radcliffe). In the books, Harry met some interesting friends when he went to The Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

His two best friends were Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint). At first glance, the trio immediately because friends despite their differences. As they got older, they experienced what it was to fall in love and lie to each other. In the end, they still remained solid no matter what.
