The FIFA World Cup, the most important and influential tournament, took its first steps on 21 May 1904, when the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) was founded in Paris by seven European countries. However, it would be more than a quarter of a century before the first edition of what is now known as the World Cup became a reality. (Photo by AFP via Getty Images)

France hosted the 1938 World Cup against a backdrop of pre-war tensions in Europe. Austria, which had a strong national team, did not attend the tournament despite having qualified, as Adolf Hitler's expansionist ambitions began with them. Spain did not attend either; it was ravaged by a civil war (19361939). (Photo by AFP via Getty Images)

Ademir scored four goals as Brazil beat Sweden 7-1. The world was beginning to recover from the devastation of the Second World War (19391945) when FIFA decided in 1946, during a congress in Luxembourg, to hold the fourth World Cup, a trophy which from that moment on came to be known as the Jules Rimet Cup in honour of the tournament's founder. Only one country put itself forward to host the tournament: Brazil, where football had already become a national passion. The Brazilian authorities decided to impress by building the world's largest stadium in Rio de Janeiro, the Maracana, a venue with a capacity of 200,000. (Photo by AFP via Getty Images)
