...seriously, a simple Google would have worked.

Quote:Origins

The Magical Congress of the United States of America, known to American witches and wizards by the abbreviation MACUSA (commonly pronounced as: Mah – cooz – ah) was created in 1693, following the introduction of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy. Wizards worldwide had reached a tipping point, suspecting that they could lead freer and happier lives if they built an underground community that offered its own support and had its own structures. This feeling was particularly strong in America, due to the recent Salem Witch Trials

You forgot the "ifs" and the "ands".

So, apparently, Gawjira here was shocked that it apparently took 1693 for the wizarding community to go underground, when it's probably on the tail end of the big witch-hunt craze? I can understand that the American version would form in 1693, but somehow, I'm fairly certain the tipping point worldwide would have to be a hell of a lot longer ago.

Also, this appears to be supplemental material for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
