Florinthus most recently hosted a world cup jointly with Oslanburg in 1578, an event that was considered a rousing success. The Florinthian Federation sees the Women's cup as a natural progression for the nation, and that any event hosted in the Federation would be an incredible success.

What is the football background in your nation: Florinthus has dedicated much to the development of the womens game, both at home and abroad. Florinthus has been a participant in every Women's World Cup thus far and all but the most recent Brigidna Cup. The nation has hosted the men's world cup twice, once on its own and once in a joint event with Oslanburg.

Why should your nation host the event: Hôinôm should host the 1584 Women's World Cup because their bid is professional and carefully planned. Football is an increasing popular sport in the country, and Hôinôm women football are experiencing a considerably support in recent years. If Hôinôm was able to host successfully, it would give a boost to football in the country, where football has been traditionally a minority sport, and an example to other developing nations where football is not still as popular as in other nations. And those damn Flos already hosted a World Cup.


What is the football background in your nation: The first Hoinomese football clubs were created in the 1520s, with the first nationwide amateur league established in 1544. The first men's football professional league was established in the 1562, which in later years became more competitive, with many foreign players from other Ostaran countries being signed up by Hoinomese clubs. After several failed attemps, the first women's football professional league was established in 1574. Unlike the men's national team, the Hoinomese women's team have failed to qualify to a World Cup so far.

Anything else of note: Hôinôm is considered by many as one of the oldest nations and cultures in Siora. The country's rich history is found in their  tasty food, their traditional music and folklore, and their literature. The influence of Oslan colonialism can still be found in many buildings of the largest cities of the country, specially in the capital city and the coastal towns. Hoinomese economy has experienced a high growth in the later decades, being Hôinôm one of the Ostaran nations with a higher increase of foreign investment in the last decade. Hôinôm is a secular country, in which sectarian violence is rarely heard. Hoinomese government is well-known to take dissent law and order very seriously, and Hoinomese streets are considerably safe, at least in the historical urban centers of the main cities of the country. It can be said that violence against foreigners was unheard anywhere in the country for the last two years.

Bid for the 1583 Women's Brigidna Cup



Nation Name: The Arch Kingdom of Oslanburg

Venues:





Why should your nation host?

As one of the top football nations in Brigidna, Oslanburg has a long history in the sport of football, with a passionate football base, one can guarantee that any of the matches played here would most likely be sold out and packed, ensuring that this would be one of the most successful FBFA Brigidna Cups in recent history.

Oslanburg also has a history of hosting large sporting events, such as the FBFA Brigidna Cup on two previous occasions in 1525 and 1545, along with the 1538, and 1578 SIFA World Cups. Oslanburg also maintain world class football facilities, courtesy of having a successful top flight league in the form of the Gulcron Superliga. No infrastructure or facility work will need to be done, and existing structures will be used for all events.

Oslanburg also boosts a rich cultural heritage in which fans can explore and learn about during the lapse between matches, allowing them to learn a great deal more about the state in which they will temporarily reside in, allowing for an understanding of Oslanburgan history and culture.

Transportation between the host cities is easy, as through a well sustained high speed rail system that connects all of Oslanburg's major cities, fans can easily travel between any of the hosting areas. Safety of those visiting will also be taken into consideration with extra security forces being deployed to make sure that the event is one that is safe, and yet still enjoyable.
