Brazil is the only nation to have competed in every single FIFA World Cup since the tournament began in 1930.

Since the inaugural FIFA World Cup held in Uruguay in 1930, Brazil has remained the only country to qualify for and participate in every tournament. As of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, they have appeared in 22 consecutive events. Other powerhouse nations have failed to match this record due to various reasons. For example, Italy failed to qualify in 1958, 2018, and 2022, while Germany did not participate in 1930 and was barred from the 1950 tournament following World War II.Brazil's achievement is remarkable because they compete in the CONMEBOL confederation, which is widely considered one of the most difficult qualifying zones in the world. Despite the high altitude of Bolivia or the defensive prowess of Uruguay and Argentina, Brazil has never finished outside the qualifying spots. Their lowest point in qualifying history occurred during the 2002 cycle when they lost six matches but still managed to secure a spot and eventually win the trophy.The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) was founded in 1914, and the sport quickly became a cornerstone of national identity. This cultural obsession ensures a constant pipeline of elite talent from youth academies to European leagues. According to FIFA historical records, Brazil also holds the record for the most wins in World Cup history with 76 victories. Their perfect attendance is not just a sporting statistic but a testament to a century of sustained athletic excellence and institutional stability.
