Take the chair — World Cup 2026 →
Rule in your own words — ban VAR, sell the World Cup, punish a giant club — and a living AI world answers. The tabloid screams, the broadsheet weighs it, and your own media office puts out the spin. Reading your press release against the coverage is the game.
Every federation reacts to every ruling — Europe's chairs, South America's fans, the Gulf's broadcasters, the minnows nobody else asks. Favourability decides congress votes, host bids and whether you survive election night, revealed nation by nation.
An ultra fan in Buenos Aires, a players' union chief, the chair of a minnow federation, a rights-holder with a spreadsheet where a heart should be. Each one reacts in character, to your exact words — and together they decide if you keep the job.
Award hosting rights to any of 193 federations — then own the consequences. Pick the host cities street by street, survive years of country-specific build-up crises, and if you hand the final to a nation of 34,000 people, the schedule will be brutal and the stories will be yours.
Take the chair mid-tournament with the actual groups — Brazil, Morocco, Scotland and Haiti exactly where they landed.
25 leagues play out matchday by matchday as you govern — and the tables you watched are the tables that stand.
The World Cup refills the reserves; everything else drains them. Go insolvent and congress votes on your future.
Win the room or lose the chair — revealed nation by nation on election night.
Reform tournaments and rewrite the rules — through congress, proposals and floor votes that can humiliate you.
100 disciplinary cases with real bite: punish too hard and the chairs come for you.
Resign, get voted out or go down with the money — then publish your reign as a shareable encyclopedia page.
San Marino, Anguilla, American Samoa — ranked, voting, and once in a blue moon, qualifying.
Start during World Cup 2026 with the real draw, or take a quiet August and build toward your own tournament. Either way, the world reacts to what you actually say.
