Serbia should be changed to Yugoslavia. Serbia has never reached the top four. Yugoslavia consisted of many republics: Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzogovina.

== I believe "World Cup" should redirect here ==
I agree that it's weird. If results have to be inherited by an existing country (which would make sense given that this is what happens for West Germany and URSS), I think that Croatia should be the heir of the titles. Croatia can claim that it went on to keep alive the football tradition of Yugoslavia, as it continued to win further titles. Serbia is the biggest of the ex-Yugoslavian countries, but size is the only claim they can make to those titles. So, I'd either count them separately, or add them to the team that went on to play football at a competitive international level.--] (]) 01:25, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
:I know it ''seems'' weird, but since FIFA considers Serbia to be the only successor to Yugoslavia's World Cup record, I don't see a problem with it. You have to follow the sources, not just what "feels" right. – ]] 18:43, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

Why does AFC have their number of hosts 2 (not counting Saudi Arabia 2034) but every other confederation counts future tournaments?

Like Africa counts South Africa 2010 and Morocco 2030 as 2 in total and North America has 4 (counting the upcoming 2026) but AFC only counts Japan/Korea 2002 and Qatar 2022, not counting Saudi Arabia 2034 142.113.207.182 (talk) 03:05, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Attendances

I had previously moved the table of attendance figures to "FIFA World Cup records and statistics". It had then been readded here by Josh0108 (alt), and now I moved it again.
