About this quiz
The men's World Cup has been staged 23 times from 1930 to 2026. These 15 countries each hosted one on their own; shared tournaments, such as 2002 and 2026, are left out.
- Uruguay hosted and won the first World Cup in 1930.
- Italy, France, Brazil and Mexico have each hosted twice on their own; the year shown is their first.
- South Africa's tournament in 2010 was the first held in Africa.
- The 2002 World Cup was shared by Korea Republic and Japan, so neither is on this list.
