France hosted the 1938 World Cup against a backdrop of pre-war tensions in Europe. Austria, which had a strong national team, did not attend the tournament despite having qualified, as Adolf Hitler's expansionist ambitions began with them. Spain did not attend either; it was ravaged by a civil war (19361939). (Photo by AFP via Getty Images)

(FILES) Uruguayans Pedro Cea, Hector Scarone and Hector Castro (from L) celebrate after Uruguay beat Argentina 4-2 in the first-ever World Cup soccer final in Montevideo on July 30, 1930. The FIFA World Cup, the most important and influential tournament, took its first steps on 21 May 1904, when the Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) was founded in Paris by seven European countries. However, it would be more than a quarter of a century before the first edition of what is now known as the World Cup became a reality. The First World War (19141918) put a stop to plans for a global tournament. Ten years later, the aspirations of the footballing community of that era came to fruition with the first World Cup in Uruguay. (Photo by AFP via Getty Images)
