What is the origin of the World Cup? what is the purpose?

The quadrennial World Cup has always attracted millions of fans around the world, so how did it come into being and develop? 1928 In May, in order to meet the needs of the development of modern football, FIFA held a congress in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and the participants unanimously adopted the decision to host the World Cup. 1930, the first World Cup soccer championship was held in Uruguay, and it has been held every four years since then.

At the FIFA Congress held in Luxemburg from 65438 to 0956, it was suggested that the "World Football Championship" be renamed as "Rimet Cup" in recognition of the outstanding contribution of former FIFA President and Frenchman Rimet to football. Later, it was proposed to link the two names to become the "World Football Championship-Rimet Cup". Later, at the meeting of octyl delegates held in Geben, Finland, the name was changed to "World Football Championship-Rimet Cup", which is referred to as "World Cup" for short, and this name has been used ever since.

There are two World Cup trophies. The first "Golden Goddess Cup" is made of pure gold. The cup weighs 1.8kg and stands on a marble base with a height of 30cm. It was made by ferrier, a famous French jewelry designer. Taking Nikai, the winged goddess of victory in Greek mythology, as a model, he created an image of a woman dressed in ancient Roman costume, with her arms stretched out and her cup held high. At that time, FIFA stipulated that the team that won the World Cup would keep the gold cup until the next game. But at the same time, it is stipulated that the country that won the championship three times will always have this gold cup.

1970 Brazil won the World Cup in Mexico for the third time, so the "Golden Goddess Cup" flew to Brazil and settled there forever. Unfortunately, someone stole the golden cup and melted it. In order to make a new trophy, in 197 1, FIFA selected 52 design patterns, and the design scheme of Gazania in Italy was selected. The trophy he designed is the shape of two Hercules holding an earth. This golden cup is 36 cm high and weighs 5 kg. It is called "FIFA World Cup". The trophy is liquid.

The World Cup was held 15 times from 1930, and only 6 countries won the championship. They are: Brazil 4 times, Germany 3 times, Italy 3 times, Uruguay 2 times, Argentina 2 times, Britain 1 time.

In the upper part of the emblem, the theme slogan of this World Cup is "Brothers of the World", while in the lower part, another major purpose of this World Cup is to "say no to racism".
