I note that the World Cup would require sixteen teams to qualify. Are we merely announcing our interest, or should we decide who qualifies? Perdedor's original suggestion would give us eight teams from Asia... which is rather high, IMHO.
Suggest qualifications:
Europe: 5 teams.
Asia: 4 teams
The Americas: 4 teams
Africa and Australia: 3 teams
So far we have interest from:
Europe: Ireland, Turkey, Denmark, Iberia, Russia, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Nordmark, Coldmere, Yugoslavia, England/Wales/Scotland, Greece?. 15 so far.
Asia: (Perdedor's suggestions) Japan, China, Siam, Chosen, Bharat, Persia, Philippines and the DEI. 8 suggested.
The Americas: Peru. 1 interested.
Africa and Australia: Australia, Atlantis. 2 interested.
