31 if you count Nova Hollanda.

 

[Capibara]

Thinking it better, I'll stick just with Venice, as it seems that we're almost full either way.

Did you send the full post like with the team information and the country information?

 

[Baconheimer]

I’d like to not have Turkestan used unless everyone else that wants a second state gets theirs done.

Too late, as I'm already writing the details of the Iran-Turkestan joint bid

 

[Gian]

The Football Federation of Iran (FFI) and the Turkestan Football Association (TFA) are proud to announce a joint bid for the 2020 AHFA World Cup. We recognize that football unites people across the globe much like the Silk Road of old, and we feel that this our way of channeling that spirit of connectivity across cultures, nations, and peoples.

Stadiums List​

The two nations have contributed eight stadiums each for a total of sixteen stadiums, scattered throughout the region. To reduce travel times for the participating teams and their supporters, each stadium will be grouped into four clusters of four stadiums each. Two groups will play within a single cluster, with a base-camp assigned within the general area, close to each stadium.

Buxara's Timür National Stadium will host both the first match and the third-place match, while Tehran's Azadi Stadium will host the final. It is projected that all post-group matches will be shared equally between the two countries.

I’d like to not have Turkestan used unless everyone else that wants a second state gets theirs done.

I think we should use Turkestan, especially if @Lothal fails to put up a roster for Khemia.
