To think back to times when the USA or Mexico could host a WC on their own... Not to speak of Switzerland or even friggin' Uruguay (which essentially consists of Montevideo + its countryside).

Sweden hosted one to, but to be fair WC wasn't what it is now, before the 60's-70's it was a lot different with exposure, teams, travelling fans and such.

I don't get this bid either. I think the FIFA decided after the kor-jap 2002 that dual hosting would not be preferred. this came out somewhere in 2014 while BEL and NL had already had their bidding campaigns for 2018.....
