{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29th and jumped to 7th after.

==History==
Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>[[nspost:42833301|World Cup 99 - RP Thread]]</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

===Former players===
Eighty-two footballers have retired from playing in at least one World Cup cycle for Sel Appa between World Cups 30 and 52. Twelve played in only one cycle. Fourteen played in seven cycles, and one (Colin Patette) in ten. Patette is honored as the "Dean" of the team, and is expected to hold this title for a long time. Estevez was also accorded dean status, including his three cycles as coach.

===World Cup===
Sel Appa first entered the Qualifiers for World Cup 30 and made two more attempts before debuting at the 33rd edition and made it to the Round of 16. The Turtles qualified four more times, culminating in their World Cup 37 bronze. The next cup saw them knocked out in the Quarterfinals and they did not qualify for 39, but returned in World Cup 40 and 41. After not making the 42nd Finals, the team boycotted the next seven cups due to a controversial group stage disqualification in 41, before returning for the 50th and 52nd editions. Their next entry would come 46 cups later, starting a new era in Sel Appan football.

Sel Appa national football team

Sel Appa: /* Second Era */

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29th and jumped to 7th after.

==History==
Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>[[nspost:42833301|World Cup 99 - RP Thread]]</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29th and jumped to 7th after.

==History==
Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=567288&p=42833301#p42833301</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

The '''Cup of Harmony''' ('''CoH''') is an international football tournament organized by the [[World Cup Committee]] and is one of the three competitions that make up each [[World Cup]] cycle. Tournaments are held concurrently with the [[World Cup]] finals and involve teams who did not successfully qualify for the World Cup. Entrants are invited at the discretion of the hosts, subject to meeting requirements set by the World Cup Committee constitution. The World Cup cycle each Cup of Harmony corresponds to can be found by adding 8 to its number (e.g, CoH 34 was held during WC 42). Four-time winners [[Turori]] are the most successful team in this tournament.

The first tournament was held by [[Tanah Burung]] and took place during the finals of World Cup 8. It was originally known as the Frosty Cup, named in honour of [[Alasdair I Frosticus]]. The name Cup of Harmony comes from the second such tournament, organised by [[Warnocks Wizards]]. The third edition was called the Supercup, but for recordkeeping purposes is regarded as Cup of Harmony 2.
Competitors earn [[KPB ranking system|KPB points]] from the competition, thus affecting their international ranking.

==Qualification and entry==
Rules for entry are set out in the World Cup Committee Constitution. A nation must have:
* participated in the corresponding World Cup,
* failed to qualify for that World Cup, given the conditions set by the hosts,
* posted at least one roleplay during the qualifiers; and
* indicated a desire to play in the Cup of Harmony in response to a host invitation,

Please note that the World Cup Committee does not officially keep records of final scores or third-place teams. The accuracy of such information therefore cannot be guaranteed.

Sel Appa national football team

Sel Appa: /* Cup of Harmony */ 31

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29 out of 48.

==History==
Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=567288&p=42833301#p42833301</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29 out of 48.

==History==
Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=567288&p=42833301#p42833301</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

Introduction.

== History ==
.

=== Early Years ===
[[Cosumar]] debuted on the international stage in the [[World Cup 51]] cycle under Devin Dunsk. The debut qualifying campaign as an unranked nation was a struggle but accentuated with moments of excitement that drew attention back home. [[World cup 52|World Cup 52]] and [[World cup 53|World Cup 53]] saw improved competitiveness under Barry Feldman, with the team finishing midtable in their qualifying groups. The increasing confidence culminated with an unexpected run at [[Cup of Harmony 45]], in which the team finished third—Cosumar's first international honor.

=== Farris Crowley Era ===
What happened next was one of the most pivotal moments in the history of Cosumari sport. [[Farris Crowley]] took over the reins of the promising young team and did not let go for several decades, earning his moniker as the "Father of Cosumari Football". His tactical mind, charismatic allure, and trademark witticisms not only led to success on the pitch for the national team, but also immense cultural success. Crowley helped endear millions to the game itself—once secondary amongst many sports fighting for dominance in Cosumar—over the course of his long tenure, transforming Cosumar into an unquestioned "football nation".

==== Growing the Sport and Making a Name ====
Under Crowley, Cosumar built upon its breakout Cup of Harmony and qualified for the first time for [[World Cup 54]]. This was the beginning of the country's formative "golden age" in the sport. From World Cup 54 to [[World Cup 59]], a run of six consecutive World Cup qualifications included advancing out of the group four times (each time eliminated in the Round of 16). After a near-perfect record in WC59 Qualifying, Cosumar reached its peak KPB ranking of #7. In this era, new rivalries were formed and Cosumar's first star players made their names. Forwards [[Rikki Varshney]] and [[Luke Crisalus]], midfielders [[Irvinn Rincon]] and [[Brian Emerson]], among others, became celebrities and remain legends in Cosumar for their performances in these World Cups that brought newfound sporting pride to the nation.

==== Decline ====
The National Team began a gradual decline in the [[World Cup 60]] and [[World Cup 61]] cycles, eliminated at the brink in the Qualification Playoffs despite strong campaigns. They would qualify once again for [[World Cup 62]], but the downward trajectory had already set in. The country was still passionate about the team, but it became increasingly clear that the infrastructure and investment behind the game was not developed enough to sustain a consistent talent level as the original stars began to fade. From [[World Cup 64]] to [[World Cup 66]], the lack of quality was particularly bleak and Cosumar's once-elite ranking dipped as low as the 80s. Recognizing this, the federation stuck with Farris Crowley at the helm and quietly made investments behind the scenes, such as the formation of a more organized domestic league pyramid, spearheaded by the [[Harlighet Ligan]], and encouraging clubs to prioritize youth development.

==== Renaissance Generation ====
During the [[World Cup 68]] cycle, a new crop of talent out of the nascent domestic league began to make waves. Led by all-time leading scorer [[Sur Arora]] and cerebral defender [[Alexander Pearce]], this group led increasingly competitive Qualifying and Cup of Harmony campaigns...though they never did manage to make the World Cup proper. Their peak achievement ended up being a [[Cup of Harmony 62]] third-place medal, Cosumar's second, after finishing third in their Qualifying group for [[World Cup 70]]. The [[World Cup 72]] cycle was a rough transition, however. The original Renaissance Generation was aging out and the new young talent coming up behind them just wasn't gelling behind an increasingly senile and old-school Farris Crowley. It resulted in the worst Qualifying campaign since Cosumar's unranked debut, with ''eight'' draws against low-ranked minnows. Crowley was finally sacked after 40 years. Though he was given a respectful sending off in his last match, the renewed momentum that had been building seemed eviscerated.

=== Vanquishers Era ===
[[Nepharan national football team]] legend [[Gethin ramsey|Gethin Ramsey]] stepped in to lead the team at the subsequent [[Cup of Harmony 64]]. Cosumar's first foreign manager and a well-known name in the global game, Ramsey brought a level of confidence and international respect that the program had long lacked.

==== A Foreign Savior and New Heights ====
Coming off a humiliating Qualifying cycle, Ramsey salvaged Cosumar's dignity by winning the Cup of Harmony—a dramatic instant turnaround. In what had seemed like the least likely moment, Cosumar had won its first international title. Ramsey's rallying cry of calling his squad "vanquishers" after each hurdle of the tournament became emblematic of the fearless mindset that this new generation of ambitious Cosumari players needed to push to new heights. To this day, it is still the nickname used by fans of the team. Ramsey then continued his savior's work up to his death, leading his "Vanquishers" to five consecutive World Cups from [[World Cup 73]] to [[World Cup 77]], including three separate runs to the Quarterfinals. More iconic moments and players were immortalized in this era, including [[Anders Engström]], often considered the greatest Cosumari player of all-time.

==== Hosting the World Cup ====
The Cosumari game grew more in Ramsey's wake. For the first time, Cosumar won the right to host [[World Cup 78]] alongside [[Bonesea]]. For the momentous occasion of a World Cup on home soil, Alexander Pearce fittingly became the first former Cosumar player to manage the team. In his first tournament filling the big shoes of Farris Crowley and Gethin Ramsey, he led the Vanquishers to another Quarterfinal before losing a heartbreaker to [[Schottia]] in [[Klyde City]].

==== Regional Titles and Club Success ====
World Cup money was reinvested back into the domestic game, which led to a burgeoning Harlighet Ligan that claimed its first [[UICA]] [[Champions’ Cup]] thanks to [[Real Azuris]] and their increasingly famous "El Faro" youth academy ([[Bryger Tidesson]], [[Stig Soderquist]]). With a talent pool deeper than ever, Pearce was then able to break Cosumar's curse in regional competition by winning [[AOCAF Cup]] 54 and [[Eagles Cup]] VII in the years following the home World Cup. This period could be considered the pinnacle of the game in Cosumar. Many fans and pundits believed the team was primed to finally make its first deep run all the way to a World Cup medal game.

==== The Quarterfinals Curse ====
Unfortunately, the ensuing several years saw the team unable to shatter its glass ceiling. From [[World Cup 79]] to [[World Cup 83]], Cosumar continued to excel in the club game and in World Cup Qualifying (including another medal at [[AOCAF Cup]] 57), but World Cup knockout-round success continued to elude them. The quarterfinal loss to [[The Holy Empire]] at [[World Cup 82]] made Cosumar 0-5 all-time in that round of the World Cup. They have not been back since.

}}The '''Omerica national football team''' ({{lang-fr|Équipe de l'Omerique de football}}) is the representative team of the United Republics of [[Omerica]] in international {{wp|association football}}. It is currently organised by the United Republican Football Federation, the current governing body for [[football in Omerica]], and formerly organised by the Omerican Football Federation from the team's establishment until the OFF's judicially-ordered dissolution.

The team primarily contest the [[World Cup]] (plus the associated [[Cup of Harmony]]) and [[Independent Associations Championship]]. Omerica have historically been considered a mid-tier team, with the team qualifying for the World Cup finals just thrice in 21 attempts. Omerica have won one major trophy, having defeated [[Drawkland national soccer team|Drawkland]] in the [[Independent Associations Championship 7 Final|IAC 7 final]], while their best performances at a [[World Cup Committee]]-sanctioned tournament were semifinal finishes at [[Cup of Harmony 75]] and [[Cup of Harmony 90]].

==History==
{{see also|History of the Omerica national football team}}
===OFF era===
The Omerica national team was one of fifty-six to début in the 56th Baptism of Fire in [[Schiavonia]] and [[San José Guayabal]], with Omerica advancing to the knockout stage undefeated before bowing out to Lons after extra time in the last 32. The national team subsequently floundered for several cycles, finishing below expectations in tournament after tournament until [[Campionato Esportiva XIV|Esportivan Championship XIV]] in the Sarian, where Omerica unexpectedly won their group and made the quarterfinals after defeating Yttribia. Despite falling to eventual runners-up [[Nephara national football team|Nephara]] in a close match, the tournament marked a significant turn in fortunes for the national team; following the team's Championship exit, Omerica would finish in a bitter third-place in World Cup 73 qualification before achieving two consecutive knockout stage qualifications and an upset qualification for World Cup 74, narrowly beating out eventual world champions Nephara in their qualifying group.

At the finals, Omerica scalped [[Flardania national football team|Flardania]] and nearly advanced to the knockout phase, only being eliminated on the final day of the group stage by [[Barunia national football team|Barunia]]. After boycotting [[Campionato Esportiva XVI|Esportivan Championship XVI]] in Falatulu, the Omerican Football Federation found itself mired in a [[Omerican football betting scandal|corruption and betting scandal]]. Combined with a riotous fanbase which had caused [[Philibiscostal Bus Tipping|numerous bouts of destruction]], the scandal dogged the team's World Cup 75 qualifying campaign and ultimately brought the OFF to an untimely end, with the [[Judiciary of Omerica|Sessions Court of Siluria]] ordering the federation's dissolution under federal anti-corruption legislation and its liquidation to cover the fines issued to OFF executives. In the aftermath of the scandal, the republican football associations, which had predated and existed parallel to the OFF, formed the United Republican Soccer Federation to take over the OFF's functions and opted to indefinitely pull Omerica from international competition.

===URSF era===
{{Under construction}}
Omerica would return to international football after a seven-year hiatus with its entry into the third Independent Associations Championship. With the team unable to escape their group in either of their first two IAC appearances, the national team would record its two worst World Cup qualification campaigns in its history—finishing seventh and ninth out of ten in World Cup 79 and 80 qualification respectively—leading to the retirement of [[Ryan Pritchard]] and sacking of [[Christine Salmond]]. Former [[Club de 28 Mars]] manager [[Anne-Sophie Groothuis]] took over for Cup of Harmony 72; despite failing to get Omerica out of the group stage at that tournament, Groothuis's Omerica would record its first knockout stage appearance at the Independent Associations Championship in the fifth edition and would have its best qualification campaign in twelve years during the World Cup 81 cycle, finish fourth in the group and securing a winning record for the first time since the Omerican Football Federation's dissolution. Nonetheless, this luck would not carry over to the subsequent Cup of Harmony, where Omerica were draw into a "group of death" against [[Abanhfleft national football team|Abanhfleft]], [[Geisenfried national football team|Geisenfried]] and [[Darkmania national football team|Darkmania]], bowing out in the final matchday of the group stage.

==Team image==
===Nickname===
Despite the United Republican Soccer Federation's early insistence on referring to the national team as "the Gryphons" (''les Griffons''), a national symbol of Omerica and the generic nickname for Omerica national teams, the team have been traditionally referred to as "the [[wikt:incorrigible#English|Incorrigibles]]". The nickname was first coined in ''[[La Romainbourgeoise]]'' after a controversial match between [[Osarius national football team|Osarius]] and Omerica, with the name echoing the then-recent controversy surrounding "Saintland Is Stupid FC" of Gregoryisgodistan. The nickname became official ahead of qualification for the 80th World Cup, when the Federation signed a kit deal with No Nonsense Sportswear.

===Kits===
Though taking many different forms over the years, the home kit of the senior side has always been based on royal blue, customarily considered the primary national colour of Omerica, which has been used in conjunction with red, white and gold. The away kit has mostly commonly been green or white, while the goalkeeper has traditionally worn sky blue; currently, Omerica use a grey "trash can" kit when required to change. Invariably, the Omerica shirt is embroidered with the revolutionary republican [[Coat of arms of Omerica|coat of arms]], featuring the design of the [[Flag of Omerica|Sublime Union]] surrounded by oak and laurel branches and a {{wp|naval crown}}, as opposed to the official seal of the United Republican Football Federation.

Currently, Omerica kits are supplied by [[Starblaydia|Starblaydi]] sportswear company [[ediraf]]; from the [[World Cup 80 qualification|World Cup 80]] to [[World Cup 82 qualification]], kits were supplied by [[Filindostan]]i company [[No Nonsense Sportswear]], while prior to that, kits were supplied by various domestic manufacturers.

As of the ninth Independent Associations Championship, Omerica display one bronze star on the back collar to symbolise their triumph at IAC 7; any theoretical future World Cup or Cup of Harmony titles would likewise be worn on the back collar "to ward off complacency" and avoid defining the team by past laurels. These practices differ from customary international practice, which uses bronze stars to represent Baptism of Fire titles and places championship stars above or around the crest.

===Rivalries===
Currently, Omerican supporters consider [[Drawkland national soccer team|Drawkland]] to be the national team's primary rivals, dating back to the consecutive grand finals played between the two sides at the Independent Associations Championship in the sixth and seventh editions. The former grand final was the first IAC title game to enter extra time and the first to be decided by penalty shootout, won convincingly by Drawkland; the latter was the first rematch of a previous grand final in IAC history, with Omerica upsetting hosts Drawkland to win their first piece of silverware. Outside of IAC grand finals, the Kick Corps have a perfect record against Omerica: a win in the IAC 4 group stage and a double during World Cup 81 qualifying.

Omerica supporters generally consider [[Abanhfleft national football team|Abanhfleft]] to be secondary rivals, having faced the Revolutionaries more than any other nation and beaten them out to qualify for Omerica's first World Cup finals. The two nations faced off against each other at three consecutive Cups of Harmony from the 73rd to 75th editions: the two teams drew their group stage meeting in CoH 73 before Omerica recorded back-to-back eighth-final wins in CoH 74 and 75. Outside the Cup of Harmony, Abanhfleft are the stronger side, having won twice, drawn once and lost once.

A number of other rivalries have been floated, but have failed to become long-term rivalries. [[Nephara national football team|Nephara]], [[San José Guayabal national football team|San José Guayabal]] and [[Kavagrad national football team|Kavagrad]] have all been floated as possible rivals at different times for various reasons, but are considered by Omericans to be anywhere from less significant in the case of Nephara to completely unimportant in the case of Kavagrad.

===Curse of Kilkenny===
{{main|Curse of Kilkenny}}
The most famous superstition surrounding the Omerica national team is the Curse of Kilkenny, named after the [[Bridget Kilkenny Stadium]] in Teach Iarann, [[Stvoto Latoli]]. The Curse dates back to the 65th Cup of Harmony, where Omerica withdrew before their scheduled eighth-final against [[Acronius national football team|Acronius]] due to unfounded grievances over refereeing during a crucial World Cup qualifying match against Osarius. According to the loosest version of the Curse, Omerica cannot advance past the first knockout round of major international tournaments as retribution for the forfeit, with the national team only able to overcome the Curse at three Independent Associations Championships (out of ten) and three World Cup Committee tournaments (out of ten). As part of the superstition, Omerican supporters traditionally organise "sacrifices" of rubber chickens to Bridget Kilkenny before all knockout stage games.

===Home stadium===
In keeping with national tradition as a federal state, Omerica have traditionally rotated venues throughout the country, though [[RS Amphitheatre]], the [[Arena la Rouge]], [[Stade Just-Cartier]] and [[Stade de la République]] have hosted two-thirds of Omerican home internationals between them. Other notable venues to have hosted Omerican internationals include the [[Azure Stadium]], [[Stadium of the Occident]], [[Revolution Park]] and [[Seafoam Athletic Park]].

===Media coverage===
Omerican international matches are one of the events on the Main List of [[Designated Television Events]], a list maintained by the [[Federal Secretariat for Communications and Postal Services]] which requires live coverage on free-to-air television in Omerica. Since [[World Cup 81 qualification]], all Omerica matches—with the exception of World Cup finals matches, which are exclusively televised in Omerica by [[Television Seven]]—are broadcast on television and radio with full commentary by the [[Système fédérale de radiodiffusion]]; prior to that, matches outside the World Cup finals were broadcast by [[Radiotélévision nationale]]. [[Network Nine]] are the only other broadcaster certified as eligible to broadcast Omerican fixtures by the Communications Secretariat, but have yet to do so.

===Nickname===
Macbon is often referred to by the media and supporters as ''I leoni'' (The Lions) because of representing bravery for the team as it the national animal in Macbon. Perhaps notably, the Macbon national football team has never received a consistent nickname from foreign media, despite its consistent presence at the upper echelons of international football. ''I leoni'' is only used sparingly by media from other nations, further cementing the team's status as nicknameless outside Macbon.

===Rivalries===
Macbon has no main rivalries with other top footballing nations.

===Home stadium===
The Macbon national football team plays in Stadio Olimpico, Vitelogna, home of the [[SS Vitelogna]], Nicknamed "L'arena delle onde" due to the waves paints on the walls.

Sel Appa: /* Independent Associations Championship */

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29 out of 48.

Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=567288&p=42833301#p42833301</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

Sel Appa: /* Independent Associations Championship */

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29 out of 48.

Sel Appa national football team

Sel Appa: /* Independent Associations Championship */

{{Sel Appa national football team infobox}}

The '''Sel Appa national football team''' represents [[Sel Appa]] in international football competitions such as the [[World Cup]] and the [[Independent Associations Championship]]. It is controlled by the [[Football Federation of Sel Appa]] (FFSA), the governing body for football in the nation. Formerly a Cup contender in the 30s, Sel Appa has struggled to find its footing since returning in [[World Cup 98]]. The team also began to compete in the [[Independent Associations Championship]], starting with [[IAC23|23]]. There, the team did poorly until a strong run in the [[IAC25|25th]] edition, when they made it to the semifinals and took 4th place, from an overall rank of 29 out of 48.

==History==
Sel Appa began their quest for international footballing dominance in [[World Cup 30]] - without participating in a [[Baptism of Fire]] - and qualified for their first World Cup at [[World Cup 33]]. Since then, they have qualified for every World Cup, twice entering the Round of 16.

===First Era===
====World Cups 30 to 32====
Sel Appa's first three Cup runs were met with little success. The team lost more matches than it won. However, they were able to forge a record that put them on the rankings and slowly improved to enable a qualification. A very controversial match against [[The Islands of Qutar|Qutar]] led to Sel Appa's inability to qualify for [[World Cup 32]], despite being very close. The opportunity came in the next Cup, when the Turtles qualified for the first time.

====World Cup 33 to 36====
Sel Appa first qualified for [[World Cup 33]], placing second in the Group Stage group and losing to [[Demot]] in the Round of 16. Although the team qualified for Cups [[World Cup 34|34]] and [[World Cup 35|35]], it did not pass through the group stage again until [[World Cup 36]]. This Cup saw Sel Appa through second in their group, but lost again in the Round of 16 to [[Schiavonia]].

====World Cup 37====
[[World Cup 37]] marked a large change for the team with the retirement of FFSA President [[Henri LePoivre]] and 18 of the 20 players. Only [[Colin Patette]], [[Miqeulinho]], and [[Arthur Mercator V]] stayed on with Coach [[Charles DuPont]] to maintain a constant for the incoming players. The election of Sharon Eiboln as FFSA President opened the team up to female players; five signed on. The new team went all the way to the Semifinals and then defeated by [[Az-cz]], but they were able to win over [[Zwangzug]] and take 3rd place, earning much prestige and honor in international football.

====World Cups 38 to 42====

===Boycott===

===Return===
====World Cups 50 and 52====

===Second Era===
Sel Appa returned to the World Cup for the [[World Cup 98|98th Edition]]. The team was inducted into the [[World Cup Nation Hall of Fame]] for World Cup 98.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=42888224#p42888224</ref> Marek Löwy was fired after the team failed to make [[World Cup 99]].<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=567288&p=42833301#p42833301</ref>

Gérard Duceppe took over as acting coach for [[World Cup 100]] qualifiers, when the Turtles failed again to make it. Riots ensued across the nation culminating in the assassination of Duceppe at a press conference.<ref>https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=575263&p=43259666#p43259666</ref>

===Independent Associations Championship===
Sel Appa first entered the Independent Associations Championship for the 23rd edition after controversially failing to make the Cup of Harmony after World Cup 98. The roster was the same as those qualifiers and the team pulled a 1-1-2 record, showing some improvements over the qualifiers. The Turtles returned for the 24th edition, going 2-0-2 with Gérard Duceppe acting as coach. The 25th tournament marked a major breakthrough for the team with coach Walter Daviande leading them to 4th place. Sel Appa went 2-1-0 in the group stage before crashing into the Semifinals, where they lost to Reçueçn. Unexpectedly finding themselves in the 3rd place match, they managed a 1-1 draw at full time, before conceding a goal (and bronze) to Drawkland in extra time.

===Former players===
Eighty-two footballers have retired from playing in at least one World Cup cycle for Sel Appa between World Cups 30 and 52. Twelve played in only one cycle. Fourteen played in seven cycles, and one (Colin Patette) in ten. Patette is honored as the "Dean" of the team, and is expected to hold this title for a long time. Estevez was also accorded dean status, including his three cycles as coach.

==Competitive record==

===World Cup===
Sel Appa first entered the Qualifiers for World Cup 30 and made two more attempts before debuting at the 33rd edition and made it to the Round of 16. The Turtles qualified four more times, culminating in their World Cup 37 bronze. The next cup saw them knocked out in the Quarterfinals and they did not qualify for 39, but returned in World Cup 40 and 41. After not making the 42nd Finals, the team boycotted the next seven cups due to a controversial group stage disqualification in 41, before returning for the 50th and 52nd editions. Their next entry would come 46 cups later, starting a new era in Sel Appan football.

===Independent Associations Championship===
Sel Appa first entered the Independent Associations Championship for the 23rd edition after controversially failing to make the Cup of Harmony after World Cup 98. The roster was the same as those qualifiers and the team pulled a 1-1-2 record, showing some improvements over the qualifiers. The Turtles returned for the 24th edition, going 2-0-2 with Gérard Duceppe acting as coach. The 25th tournament marked a major breakthrough for the team with coach Walter Daviande leading them to 4th place. Sel Appa went 2-1-0 in the group stage before crashing into the Semifinals, where they lost to Reçueçn. Unexpectedly finding themselves in the 3rd place match, they managed a 1-1 draw at full time, before conceding a goal (and bronze) to Drawkland in extra time.

}}The '''Saltstead national football team''' ([[Saltsteadish language|Saltsteadish]]: ''Såutsteids näsjonal votballsplug'') is the representative team of [[Saltstead]] in international {{wp|association football}}. Known domestically as ''De Näsjonal Elven'' ("The National Eleven") and internationally as ''De Hegsten'' ("The Stallions"), the team falls under the jurisdiction of the [[Royal Saltsteadish Football Association]] (KSVB), the governing body for Saltsteadish football.

The team primarily contest the [[World Cup]] and [[CAFA Cup]], which alternate annually. Saltstead first played a [[World Cup Committee]]-sanctioned international in the [[Baptism of Fire 65|65th Baptism of Fire]], which the team won after defeating [[Aggrey-Fynn Land national football team|Aggrey-Fynn Land]] 3–2 in the final, and made their début appearance in the World Cup finals in the [[World Cup 81|81st edition]] after defeating [[Drawkland national soccer team|Drawkland]] in a qualifying playoff.

==Team image==
===Kits and crest===
When at home, Saltstead traditionally play in red-and-black hoops, a colour scheme modelled off the [[Coat of arms of Saltstead|royal colours of Saltstead]], with black shorts and red socks. The colour scheme of away kits have been less consistent, though they have always included white; currently, Saltstead use white shirts with blue shorts and white socks away from home, a scheme modelled on the [[Flag of Saltstead|Saltsteadish Tricolour]].

As of [[AOCAF Cup LXI]], Saltstead use a crest based on the shield of the Saltsteadish royal coat of arms, a reference to the national association's royal patronage. Above the crest is a single red star, representing Saltstead's Baptism of Fire victory. Before AOCAF LXI, the KSFB and national team used a more complex crest more closely based on the royal coat of arms.

===Home stadium===
{{main|King William VII National Park}}
Saltstead play most home matches at [[King William VII National Park]] (Saltsteadish: ''Näsjonalpark König Wilheum VII'') in the capital [[Ashwell]], though matches were temporarily relocated to and [[Meerpark]] in [[Port Michael]] and the [[Park der Fründens]] in [[Cersehorst]] while the national stadium underwent renovations.

===Media coverage===
All Saltstead matches are broadcast with full commentary on the national [[Saltsteadish Television Network]].
