## Introduction

### Trophies

2 MPR 1st Leagues, 4 Mixopolan Cups, 1 Pokémon Islands Championship, 1 Yuzhjugutia Brand Vodka Cups

**Zakonprenudīt Fūtbāl Klūbā Galar 1955 (ZFK Galar 1955 or Galar 1955 for short)** is a football club located in **Cinderacegrad, Galar, Pokémon Islands**. As the club's name implies, it was founded in 1955 as ZFK Galar (Zakonprenudīt Fūtbāl Klūbā means Police Football Club) by the local **Galarian battalion of the MPR armed police**. They used to play in the regional capital of **Obstūganīa**, but after a controversy between them and Galar City on moving stadiums was ignored by the courts of the city, they moved to **Cinderacegrad** in June 2021. Historically they are the best team in **Galar**, as they're the only team in Galar to have won a Pokémon Islands Championship, not to mention 2 MPR 1st League titles, and 4 Mixopolan Cups.

## Origins of the Club and First Zenith (<1955 - 1992)

Galar was one of the first territories occupied by the USSR during her intervention in the "Great Mixopolan War" starting in 1953, and by the time they occupied the historic capital of Bedrock, they already formed a militia to curb anti-communist descent, that being the **Galarian Battalion**. But they were already demoralized by the next year, and they started to lean more to **social democracy**, embodying this in their new uniforms, trench coats with a slight velvet tint with a velvet star, and within the star is the Mixopolan double-headed eagle. They also wore t-shirts with velvet and black stripes. The t-shirt design would inspire their battalion captain **Sam Gejar**, who would pitch an idea to the **Sports Society of Comrades** or **SOT**, who agreed to form a club for the battalion, and in May Day, 1955, **ZFK Galar** was founded, and before long they were finally in the **MPR 1st League** by 1962, and in 1966 they won their first **Mixopolan Cup**. They played an exiting form of football with players like **Finn Hofnbauer**, **Luczas Spuurl**, and **Drk Pilz**. Winning the league in 1969, and winning another 3 cups followed the club and they became famous not only to Galar but to the entire MPR. But as always with success like that, there has to be a dry spell, and this dry spell was between 1974 to 1992, but meanwhile during this time, ZFK Galar was facing some difficulties, especially in the finances department. They kept losing some goods sums of money every year, not just because of themselves, but also the dying economy of the MPR. In 1985 however, everyone thought that with the election of **Stoutland Czeraszev** would fix the MPR state, but they were proven wrong when the 1990 coup took place, which destroyed their economy much more, so much so that by 1991, ZFK Galar was put into administration, but was saved by a private investment firm. Due to this, they were kicked out of the MPR 1st League, but just half a year before the Pokémon Islands broke off.

## The Pokémon Islands Era (1992 - 2020)

Right when the Pokémon Islands split off, they sanctioned ZFK Galar, and so in 1993 they changed their name to ZFK Galar 1955 for what they thought was a temporary time. That was until unexpectedly, the team went into their golden generation. They gained players such as **Egon Sep**, **Dominik Laar**, **Fabian Samter**, and most famously, **Inteleon**, who's incredible free-kick skills earned him the nickname **"Da Snajpr"** or **"The Sniper"** in Mixopolan. In the 1998-99 season, they won the **Pokémon Islands Championship** in the final matchday, over SC Hoenn and SK Safron. That same season, they won the **Yuzhjugutia Brand Vodka Cup**, thus becoming one of the few teams to do the domestic double. After that incredible season, Galar 1955 kept having consistent top-half finishes, and in 2002, after a referendum, they officially kept the 1955 in their name. This kept going until in the 2019-20 season, where Galar 1955 had to play in the newly formed **Mixopolan Second League**.

## Present Day (2020 -)

Life in the second division didn't start so well for Galar 1955, they kept finishing outside the promotion spots. This was until the 2022-23 season, when their rebuild truly began. This effort was shown to have worked, and the were promoted by finishing 2nd place, behind Arceusjagrad Arsenal. During this stint in the second division, Galar 1955's rivals Galar City moved to their new stadium, Galar City allowed 1955 the old stadium, but when Galar 1955 went inside, it smelled like literal shit. They told this to the **Obstūganīa City Council** but to no reply. So in reparation, they tore the stadium down and got accepted a new stadium in **Cinderacegrad**. Galar 1955 has been through many trials to become what they are right now, a team originally built by the police force, to become a club for the people.
