There’s a Confederation of Africa, Confederation of Asia, Confederation of Europe, Confederation of North, Central America, and the Caribbean, Confederation of Oceania, and Confederation of South America.

Within each confederation are nations. Each nation has its own Football Association that controls its own football clubs and national football team.
