22 albums topped the #Billboard200# for the first time in 2024, including three by @1future and two by @MetroBoomin and @Stray_Kids. 📈
Take a look at every album that topped the chart for the first time in 2024.
In 22 World Cups, only 8 nations have ever lifted the trophy.
🇧🇷 Brazil: 5
🇮🇹 Italy: 4
🇩🇪 Germany: 4
🇦🇷 Argentina: 3
🇫🇷 France: 2
🇺🇾 Uruguay: 2
🏴 England: 1
🇪🇸 Spain: 1
Look closer and it gets wilder:
→ Two continents own the entire trophy case. Europe has 12 titles. South America has 10. Everyone else has zero.
→ No nation outside those two has ever even reached a final. Not the USA, not South Korea, not Morocco. 96 years, and the door has never opened.
→No host country has won it since France in 1998.
→Brazil is the only team to play in all 22.
The last team to break onto the list was Spain in 2010. Nobody new has joined since.
Now the math changes. In 2026, 48 teams, the biggest field in history, get 104 matches across the USA, Mexico and Canada to crash a list that has stayed closed since 1930.
