World Cup Culture

88 years ago, the biggest sporting event on the planet was inaugurated, "the world cup".

I will explain to you how it came about, who created it, and so on.

The Dutchman Carl Hirschmann, who had this idea in 1906,

 had the idea of ​​this initiative only in 1914, but did not do

 it that year because he was having First World War .

 So it was only approved in 1928.

"The first World Cup was organized in Uruguay in 1930. The country was chosen as the venue because it was celebrated the centenary of its independence that year and also because it was two Olympic champion in 1924 and 1928."

The Cup is the sporting event that has more spectators, only 8 countries were champions: Brazil 5 times, Italy 4 times, Germany 4 times, Uruguay 2 times, Argentina 2 times, France 1 time, England 1 time and Spain 1 time.
