As for September 2005, FIFA counts up 20 national football associations affiliated,
New Caledonia was admited in 2004, during
the FIFA Centenial celebrations, but the newest member are Comoros,
and Timor-Leste [This is the official short-form name in English], which joined
the football family during the 55th FIFA Congress held in Marrakech, Morocco.
Thus the FIFA is the thrird world's biggest sporting
organization (by members) just after the International Volley-Ball Federation (218 members)
and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF)
which has in turn 210 members.
