The AIFA Club Nations Cup is an international men's association football competition organised by the Astyrian International Football Association (AIFA), the sport's governing body in Astyria. The competition was first contested in 2000, after AIFA decided to promote further competition at the sport's highest levels above that of the Champions League. With it being a relatively new tournament, the prestige of the competition is still growing. Some critics argue that the format of the competition creates something of a financial crutch for teams who may have been at their prime when they won a continental competition or Champions League title, but are now struggling domestically or internationally and have no real place in the competition any longer.
The current format of the tournament involves 32 teams in a world-cup style format competing for the title at venues within the host nation over a period of about a month. The teams consist of the previous five winners of the LFC Champions League (Lorecian Football Confederation), TFC Champions League (Teudallum Football Confederation), HFC Champions Cup (Hesperidesian Football Confederation), IFC Champions League (Ixalian Football Confederation), and SFC Champions Cup (Sythith Football Confederation), as well as the previous six winners of the Champions League as the Champions League finishes before the Club Nations Cup, and between each competition there are six calendar winners. The final slot is given to the host nation's most recent domestic league Champions; if that team is already berthed through an international competition, the slot will move down the league standings until it reaches the next eligible club.
