Why does Django still display migrations when none exist?

I'm trying to reset my migrations and start off fresh but I'm getting this really strange issue I can't seem to fix. I started off by deleting the Migrations folder and Deleting every table in Database I'm using (for context it's a MySQL database and I'm using MySQL Workbench to access it). Now after doing so I ran the python manage.py showmigrations command and it keeps showing me all the old migrations even though none should exist.

Here is what I tried to do to fix this issue:

• I tried to restart the server multiple times with every change or action I did
• I deleted and created the database again with the same name
• I deleted and created the database again with a different name
• I created an empty Migrations folder in hopes that maybe it would fill up the folder with the files but it does not, and now I have an empty Migrations folder and still an empty database with no tables
• I deleted all the __pycache__ folders I could find

I know this isn't database-sided because I re-created the database with a different name as mentioned. I know there is something that is keeping all this data stored even though the Migrations folder is empty and the Database is empty with no tables. How do I fix this?
