No, I've not given up.

On the other hand, defining the American wizarding world solely by which elements of the canon Potterverse aren't there doesn't take much imagination and leaves it looking a little on the bland side.

No kidding. My fanfic concept portrays the American wizarding world as a lot like Britain's, but has a far more efficient and semi-fascistic Ministry running things.

My character would be an eleven year-old "Guardian", a specially-trained magic knight-type wizard who was trained from a young age to, essentially, serve as a member of the American Ministry's elite arm(think Aurors, but the elite of them and "Black Ops", so to speak). He and his grandparents(long story) would be dispatched to Britain as "transplants" and my character would wind up enrolling in Hogwarts as a means of serving as the American Ministry's eyes and ears in regards to the Voldemort Crisis. After all, as JKR said, Voldemort did have his eyes on the States.

Over the years, said character's training as a Guardian and the more traditional wizarding school of Hogwarts would clash and, ultimately, he would become more of an Anti-Hero. After the end of the first seven books, the sequels would revolve around his continued duties as a Guardian and serve to flesh out America's wizarding world...

I made my Wizarding America more like what I wish our America was, albeit with a very dark core. The two most powerful wizards in America (third or fourth or something in 1995) are Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca, beings who worshiped as gods by the Aztecs. Quetzalcoatl, being the only "nice" Aztec god, is friendly and supporting, and the head of the International Magical School Association or something. He also runs a school underneath the salt lake (chosen because who would search for wizards in a desert?) that teaches a fusion of European, Mesoamerican, and other native magic. He's also a former president who organized an alliance with the ultra-capitalist Russian Magical Federation and the last "brothers in faith" (faith to God/Allah) state of the United States of Islam, and a respected national hero.

Tezcatlipoca is also a national hero, but he's an imperialistic warmonger who lead the Wizarding States during her darkest hours. He lead the crusades across the Americas and all the way to Japan and Oceania, forming a massive, semi-democratic magical empire with its capital built over the Panama Canal. Thanks to a Hispanic majority and Quetzalcoatl, segregation was never a problem and racism is almost gone in the UWSA. However, in order to keep the people happy and prosperous, the magical populace of the UWSA uses Muggles to keep themselves well-off, no matter what might happen to the Muggles, often keeping them trapped in poverty while the wizards enjoy their decadent penthouses in Rio or Mexico City.

Schools would be very decentralized, running across the empire, with the largest being Quetzalcoatl's with its large, multinational attendance.

For the HEwrite, Q's school is considered number 2 with Hogwarts having slipped thanks to poor leadership and young teachers. Number one is the Magical University of Baghdad.
