Reply to TIL that FIFA is a French abbreviation, it would be IFAF in English, and England weren't an original member despite creating the game. FIFA also now has more members than the UN by BXCellent
For why there’s more members than the UN, it’s because you don’t have to be a recognized independent state to participate separately. So many non-independent territories, regions, and disputed states participate on their own accord.

More along the lines that you don’t have to be independent to join FIFA. So many territories, regions, and partially recognized states participate.

Reply to comment by AutoModerator in [WP] You died and awoke in the afterlife. It's quite nice actually. The people and atmosphere are a lot nicer than you are used to and there is no stress or pressure. When you ask what good deed got you into heaven you are informed that this is hell, followed by a visit from a very concerned demon. by Kitty_Fuchs
