The Ministry of Magic and Fudge

There is one thing that I have been wondering and that is this: Who was
the Minister of Magic when Voldemort was defeated?

It seems that Cornelius Fudge took over afterward and ran his ministry
with a complacant attitude that all was well for years and would do
anything to keep his position evident in the Goblet of Fire when he
tried to keep Dumbledore from revealing the truth. He seemed more
fearful of losing his power than doing what was best. And the more he
tightened his grip by controlling the press and the banks, he lost it
when he tried to take Hogwarts in the Order of the Pheonix.

It makes me wonder just how the previous administrations handled
Voldemort and others like him.
