This championship has been held every four years since the 1930 tournament, except in 1942 and 1946, which was not held due to World War II. The current World Cup champion is Germany, who won the 2014 tournament in Brazil.

The format of the tournament is currently followed by 32 teams competing for the title in the sports arena in the host country in about a month; this round is often called the World Cup Final. The qualifying phase, which is currently held within three years of the World Cup, is held to determine which teams will qualify for the tournament, along with the host country.

19 World Cup tournaments have been won by eight different national teams. Brazil has won the World Cup five times, and is the only team that routinely follows every tournament.
