Yeah, that's why I love pre-OotP stories the best, really; a lot of them seem to have a wider view than post-OotP fics. It kind of feels like the fifth book narrowed the focus -- which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I wanted more characters who weren't British. :[ Moar awesome Bulgarian Minister, plz.
I think JKR officially said there were no wizarding universities, but I'm not buying that. ^ ^ And we don't even know how you get a Mastery; all we know is that Snape has one.
What I chiefly remember about the Sacrifices Arc is that it made me want to read about Evan Rosier. (Whom, if you recall, was mentioned exactly once in canon, as someone who took a chunk out of Moody's nose when being arrested.) :D And Peter being portrayed in a positive light, but that's nothing new.
