The World Cup is the biggest English Micronational sporting event, and will be held during December and January of 2004-2005. Previous hosts, the Republic of Aerlig (2002) and the Theocracy of Mediterranea (2003-04) have enjoyed a large influx of visitors into their nation as a result of hosting the Cup.

The World Cup is open to all member nations of EIFA. At present, there are 11 member nations, but EIFA always greets a number of new members at the start of each World Cup.

EIFA opens the opportunity to host the World Cup to its members, providing they meet the criteria. Prospective hosts, who meet the criteria, must submit an application to the EIFA Head Office by no later than Sunday, November 14^th 2004.
