The "Matical High Commission" is an organization dedicated to the promotion and advancement of the field of mathematics. It serves as a governing body for mathematicians, educators, and researchers around the world, providing a platform for collaboration and knowledge-sharing. The commission aims to unify the global mathematical community by fostering international cooperation and facilitating the exchange of ideas. Through conferences, seminars, and workshops, mathematicians from different countries can come together to discuss the latest developments in their respective fields and work towards finding innovative solutions to mathematical problems. One of the key initiatives of the Matical High Commission is to promote mathematical education at all levels. It recognizes the importance of nurturing young minds and inspiring the next generation of mathematicians.
In "Divide", the Commission sits in on Star's royal council meeting to decide what to do about Meteora. However, Star immediately expels them from the meeting because of their generations of deceiving the Butterfly family.
When Queen Moon is unable to defeat Toffee herself, she recovers the bodies and remains of the fallen Commission members and escapes through a portal. In Pizza Party , the High Commission celebrates Eclipsa s dethronement, except for Hekapoo, who secretly saves her and the others from Mina Loveberry.
It recognizes the importance of nurturing young minds and inspiring the next generation of mathematicians. The commission supports various educational programs and initiatives that aim to increase interest and proficiency in mathematics among students of all ages. Additionally, the Matical High Commission plays a vital role in the recognition and dissemination of groundbreaking mathematical research.

The Magic High Commission and its members are introduced in the season 2 episode "Page Turner". They summon Glossaryck to their headquarters at the Bureaucracy of Magic (where he gets into a brief conflict with Rhombulus) and inform him of a sharp magical imbalance in the universe.
It awards prestigious prizes and honors to mathematicians who have made significant contributions to the field. By acknowledging and celebrating the achievements of outstanding mathematicians, the commission encourages and motivates others to pursue excellence in their mathematical pursuits. Furthermore, the Matical High Commission advocates for the inclusion and diversity in mathematics. It recognizes that talent and ability in mathematics are not constrained by age, gender, race, or socioeconomic background. Through its initiatives, the commission strives to create a more inclusive and equitable mathematical community, ensuring that all individuals have equal opportunities to excel in the field. In conclusion, the Matical High Commission plays a pivotal role in advancing the field of mathematics globally. Through its collaborative efforts, it enhances international cooperation, promotes mathematical education, recognizes exemplary research, and advocates for inclusivity. By providing a platform for mathematicians to connect and collaborate, the commission contributes to the growth and development of the mathematical community..
Reviews for "Engaging the Next Generation: Youth Outreach by Mathematical High Commissions"
1. Jane - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with my experience at Matical High Commission. The service was slow and disorganized, and the staff seemed indifferent to our needs. The food was mediocre at best, and the prices were exorbitant for what we received. Overall, I would not recommend this place for anyone looking for a high-quality dining experience.
2. John - 1/5 stars - Terrible experience at Matical High Commission. The atmosphere was chaotic and crowded, making it impossible to have a relaxing meal. The wait staff was inattentive and forgot our orders multiple times. When the food finally arrived, it was cold and tasteless. The whole experience was a waste of time and money.
3. Sarah - 2/5 stars - My visit to Matical High Commission was underwhelming to say the least. The restaurant was not clean, and the tables were sticky. The menu options were limited, and the portions were small for the price. The staff seemed overwhelmed and unorganized, resulting in long wait times for both ordering and receiving our food. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience.
4. Mike - 1/5 stars - Absolutely terrible experience at Matical High Commission. The service was extremely slow, and the staff was rude and unaccommodating. The food was bland and lacking in flavor. It's clear that this restaurant lacks attention to detail and proper customer service. Save yourself the disappointment and dine elsewhere.
