Try doing an Internet search on football, or on soccer as it's called in the US.  Also a search of FIFA would be a good place to start.  This is the organization that puts on the World Cup.  Their site has TONS of information on the World Cup.  Also, a search for FIFA will give you a ton of links with teams, standings, scores,etc.  One more bit of advice, use your brain and do the research yourself.  It's really not that hard with the Internet and all.  And stop procrastinating.  When you get things done early you don't stress about it later.  Also, many times it's good to research something you're not interested in.  You can learn something and even broaden your horizons a bit and maybe get a new interest or hobby.  Good luck on your paper.

Um lol it's cool but it really is speculative though. For every example raised to prove this "theory", many more counter-examples can be raised too.\n\nFor instance, France won in 1998 and (3964 - 1998 = 1966)\nBut it was England who won in 1966!\n\nYou can obtain a list of past winners from this site: http://worldsoccer.about.com/cs/worldcup/a/wcupwinz.htm.\n\nBasically if this "theory" is to be believed, then we can predict the winners of the World Cup for the future years as follows:\n2010: Germany\n2014: Uruguay\n2018: Italy\n2022: Italy\n2026: Uruguay\n\nYou can check the math.\n\nSo just because a couple of World Cup winners can be "linked" up like that doesn't mean that it's always gonna work. Interesting, but at the end of the day, it ain't accurate.

Well Antartica but no one lives there, my next guess would be Oceania, because yes Australia did qualify but it is now considered to be part of Asia's Confederation (as of the beginning of 2006). It was to late to get another representitive country from Oceania. So for Oceania to really have a represtitive in the World Cup they must wait another 4 years.

this is only the first round.  they cannot go beyond the first round until all  teams have finished, then they will bring up a brand new schedule.  Its why the World Cup lasts a month.

Early World Cups were given to countries at meetings of FIFA's congress. The choice of location was highly controversial, given the three week boat journey between South America and Europe, the two centres of strength in football. The decision to hold the first cup in Uruguay, for example, led to only four European nations competing.[15] The next two world cups were both held in Europe. The decision to hold the second of these, the 1938 FIFA World Cup, in France was controversial, as the American countries had been led to understand that the World Cup would rotate between the two continents. Both Argentina and Uruguay thus boycotted the tournament.[16]\n\nAfter the 1958 FIFA World Cup, to avoid any future boycotts or controversy, FIFA began a pattern of alternation between the Americas and Europe, which continued until the 1998 FIFA World Cup. The 2002 FIFA World Cup (hosted jointly by Japan and Korea) was the first one held in Asia, and in 2010, South Africa will become the first African nation to host the World Cup. (South Africa will not be the first Southern Hemisphere nation to host the Cup, as former hosts Uruguay, Brazil, Chile and Argentina all lie south of the Equator.)\n\nThe 2014 FIFA World Cup was allocated to South America in 2003, allowing the ten member nations of CONMEBOL to bid in order to host. However, after a short period of time, every nation in the continent backed Brazil as the only viable host of the 2014 finals, creating the odd situation where the 2014 World Cup host was unofficially determined. However, it is not yet certain that Brazil will be able to host the competition; if the Brazilians pull out, the tournament will be moved to another continent.\n\nThe system evolved so that the host country is now chosen in a vote by FIFA's executive committee. This is done under a single transferable vote system. The decision is currently made six years in advance of the tournament.

The Jules Rimet (not Juliette) trophy was the original prize for winning the World Cup. During World War II (1939-1945), the trophy was held by Italy (by virtue of their 1938 victory). Ottorino Barassi, an official of the Italian Football Federation, hid it from the Germans in a shoe-box under his bed. During a public exhibition just before the 1966 World Cup Final in England the trophy was stolen, but was found just seven days later.\n\nThe Brazilian team won the trophy in perpetuity in 1970, being rewarded for being the only team ever to have won three World Cups. However the cup was stolen again in 1983 and never recovered: it may have been smelted. The Brazilian Football Confederation commissioned a replica of their own, made of sterling silver with a gold plating and a blue base made of lapis lazuli.\n\nA replacement trophy, officially known as the FIFA World Cup, was designed and first presented to the winners of the 1974 World Cup. But this time around, FIFA is unlikely to give it away again: the winners of the tournament receive it in loan for four years and receive a replica to keep. It is not known whether FIFA will retire the trophy after all of the name plaques at the base are filled in; this will occur after the 2038 World Cup.

World Cup is the name of the 'event', FIFA is who organizes it (F?International Football Association).\nCities can have teams with players from all over the world, but for the World Cup, each player plays for their own country (i.e. Ronaldo plays for Real Madrid of Spain, but on the World Cup he plays for Brazil) - the different soccer clubs have nothing to do with the Wcup. \nClassification starts like LONG time before and they'll play for classification and finally the best teams get sorted randomly to play with each other in different groups

because starting this world cup, the holders have to qualify for the world cup. so, brazil had to play in the qualifying rounds to qualify for 2006 world cup. that is why now on, the hosts will play in the inaugural match. if we were to continue with the holders playing the opening match, then there is a real possibility that the holders may not qualify for the next world cup. just look at Greece, they may not qualify for the next european championship.

there are no such father of the world cup, but FIFA president (1921-1954) Jules Rimet set about organizing the inaugural World Cup tournament in Uruguay in 1930.\n\nJules Rimet (born October 14, 1873 at Theuley-les Lavoncourt, France, died October 16, 1956) was president of the French Football Federation from 1919 to 1945 and of FIFA from 1921 to 1954. On Rimet's intiative, the first Football World Cup was held in 1930. Jules Rimet Trophy,  was named in his honour (which was the name of the world cup until Brazil made lifted the coveted cup for the third time in 1970 and took it home for permanent).

1970 mexico.\nThe 1970 Football World Cup was held in Mexico, from May 31 to June 21. The decision was made by FIFA in October 1964 in Tokyo, Japan, with Mexico beating out Argentina's bid to organize the event. Two years later Argentina was chosen to celebrate the 1978 FIFA World Cup. The 1970 World Cup was won by Brazil, who beat Italy 4-1 in the final. This tournament saw the return of free-flowing, attacking play after the physical battles of 1962 and 1966, and is still considered by many fans to be the finest World Cup in history. Not a single red card was issued in the competition. The Brazilian team, featuring Pelé (who was in his fourth and final World Cup), Jairzinho, Rivelino and Tostão, is often regarded as the greatest team ever.
