NFL Europa

The **NFL Europa** was a European American football league that ran from 1991 to 2007 under the control of the National Football League. It started off as the **World League of American Football** and had 3 teams in Europe, 6 in the USA and one in Canada. After 2 years the league was put on hold, so there were no 1993 or 1994 seasons. The league came back in 1995 as a purely European league, with the 3 original European teams plus 3 new ones. In 1998 the name of the league was changed to **NFL Europe** and then in 2007 it became **NFL Europa**. After the 2007 season, the NFL ceased operations of the league. This was a developmental league of the NFL. The Berlin Thunder were the league's best team, winning 42 games and 3 World Bowls
