Countries That Qualified For The 2010, 2014 & 2018 FIFA World Cups

Map created by reddit user SoldadoTrifaldon

The deceptively simple map above shows which countries qualified for the 2010, 2014 and 2018 FIFA World Cups respectively.

The genius lies in the use of colour, which allows you to very quickly and easily see which countries qualified and in what year(s).

Each year only 32 teams qualify, but over the 3 tournaments a total of 50 countries will have taken part, they are (years qualified):

  1. Algeria (2010, 2014)
  2. Argentina (2010, 2014, 2018)
  3. Australia (2010, 2014, 2018)
  4. Belgium (2014, 2018)
  5. Bosnia and Herzegovina (2014)
  6. Brazil (2010, 2014, 2018)
  7. Cameroon (2010, 2014)
  8. Chile (2010, 2014)
  9. Colombia (2014, 2018)
