History

The Ethlorek Cup was first contested in 1976 by eight national teams from within the Trellinese Empire. Hosted by Trellin, on this occasion it was won by Arimathea, who were then hosts to the next tournament, which was won by Trellin. This system of having the winner host continued until Cadenza's two-in-a-row in 1984 and 1988. Complaints had been lodged by several teams after the 1982 Astyrian Cup and during the 1988 Ethlorek Cup that the grounds in Cadenza were inadequate: one pitch was too small for a regulation football match, and matches arranged for it in 1988 had to be held elsewhere. Trellin therefore was assigned host duties for the 1992 Ethlorek Cup, and the hosting system was replaced with a bidding process.

The 1996 tournament saw it expanded to ten teams, with the addition of Berique and Étlaurlande. Aquitayne and Fyngaria joined the competition from 2024.
