You could say that The Ministry of Magic is really just the FBI and control center for the wizarding world. Within the Ministry, lie seven different departments including: The Department of Magical Law Enforcement, Magical Games and Sports, Magical Catrosophes, Accidental Magic Reversal, International Magic Cooperation, Magical Transportation, Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, and Mysteries.
