The first football World Cup was held in Uruguay in 1930. The World Cup 2022 in Qatar was the 22st World Cup so far. Because of the Second World War, there was no World Cup in 1942 and 1946. The next World Cup will be held in the USA, Mexico and Canada in 2026.
The first European championships took place 30 years later 1960 in France.
