These are the European Championship (UEFA), the Copa América (CONMEBOL), African Cup of Nations (CAF), the Asian Cup (AFC), the CONCACAF Gold Cup (CONCACAF) and the OFC Nations Cup (OFC). The FIFA Confederations Cup is contested by the winners of all six continental championships, the current FIFA World Cup champions and the country which is hosting the Confederations Cup. This is generally regarded as a warm-up tournament for the upcoming FIFA World Cup and does not carry the same prestige as the World Cup itself.

The winners of each continental competition contest the FIFA Club World Cup. <SEP> the 1950 fifa world cup, held in brazil from 24 june to 16 july 1950, was the fourth fifa world cup. it was the first world cup since 1938, the planned 1942 and 1946 competitions having been cancelled due to world war ii. it was won by uruguay, who had won the inaugural competition in 1930. they clinched the cup by beating the hosts brazil 2–1 in the deciding match of the four-team final group. this was the only tournament not decided by a one-match final. it was also the first tournament where the trophy was referred to as the jules rimet cup, to mark the 25th anniversary of jules rimet's presidency of fifa. <SEP> for germany's world cup history, fifa considers only the teams managed by the deutscher fußball - bund, comprising three periods: germany (during nazi era), west germany and reunified germany. the germany national football team is one of the most successful national teams at the fifa world cup, winning four titles, earning second - place and third - place finishes four times each and one fourth - place finish. if you consider 3rd place or better for a winning campaign, germany's 12 victories in 19 tournaments add up to at least three more than any other nation. in addition, germany are the only team which has stood on the podium (3rd place or better) every decade there was a tournament held -- 1930s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. along with argentina, brazil and spain, they are one of the four national teams to win outside their continental confederation, with the title of the 2014 fifa world cup in south america. the team was present in 19 out of the 21 tournaments, the second most frequent, and only did not reach the quarterfinals twice, in 1938 and 2018. with this, germany's 8th place or better (quarterfinals) in 17 out of 19 tournaments (89%) ranks highest in fifa world cup finals history. it makes germany the better team in the history of the tournament in terms of final positions, if points were awarded proportionally for a title, runner - up finish, third - place finish, semi-final and quarter - final appearances. <SEP> Germany became the first European team to win a World Cup staged in the Americas, and this result marked the third consecutive title won by a European team, after Italy in 2006 and Spain in 2010.
