    Aldeth - every country has a team! (That's why the soccer World Cup is the only genuine WORLD cup in team sport.)

    Why wouldn't Vanuatu and New Caledonia have teams?

    But all countries aren't members of FIFA: Vatican City, Monaco, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Micronesia, Nauru, Marshall Islands, and Palau are the 8 outsiders ;).

    As for Vanuatu, I did not know that every country had a team. As for New Caledonia, I didn't know it existed as an idependent nation!

    They do have a team (from members of Swiss guard and Papal council), but their national team just doesn't belong to FIFA. So they can't play in World Cup, but they play friendlies and cups like Catholicus Cup :D .
