It is the oldest of the six continental confederations of FIFA, and with 10 member associations, it has the fewest members of all the confederations. It is the only fully continental, land-based confederation, with no island members or members from other continents. CONMEBOL's headquarters are in Luque, Paraguay.
CONMEBOL national teams have won ten FIFA World Cups (Brazil five, Argentina three, and Uruguay two) and CONMEBOL clubs have won 22 Intercontinental Cups and four FIFA Club World Cups. Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay have won two Olympic gold medals each.
