The North Antarctic Domain national football team was the football team which most recently represented the Haifo-Pallisican autonomous territory of the Domain of the North Antarctic, commonly known as the North Antarctic Domain, and previously represented the Passian autonomous territory of the same name. It was a member of the CTFA.

The team existed twice in the FMF's history; firstly between early 2015 and late 2020 as Passian and Haifo-Pallisican territories, and secondly between early 2021 and mid-2023 as a Haifo-Pallisican territory. It was seen as the spiritual successor of Afrikaana in that the vast majority of its players originated from this nation's team, but it did not retain its records.

History

The North Antarctic Domain applied successfully to join the FMF after the territory was founded by Passio-Corum in early 2015. In their first qualifiers, the team finished third in their five-team group with 13 points.

The qualifying rounds for CiboTap 2016 saw the team finish fourth in their five-team group with nine points, ahead of Hammish Monovia on goals scored.

The team finished third in their five-team 2017 FMF World Cup qualification group with 16 points, placed behind Leichenberg by virtue of goals scored.

In early 2018, the North Antarctic Domain became an autonomous territory of the Imperial Trade Union, after Passio-Corum joined with the Strait of Haifa, and maintained its separate FMF membership. The team competed in the 2018 CiboTap Championships qualification rounds, where they finished second in their five-team group with 18 points to advance to the play-offs, where they beat Mar Sara 2–1 on aggregate to qualify for their first finals. At CiboTap 2018, the team finished third in their four-team group with three points and failed to advance.

In the 2019 World Cup qualifiers, the team finished third in their six-team group with 14 points.

In the following year's CiboTap qualifiers, the team finished third in their four-team group with ten points. The North Antarctic Domain left Micras in late 2020 after the Imperial Trade Union reduced its land claims, but returned again at the beginning of 2021 after being reëstablished.

In the 2021 FMF World Cup qualification rounds, the team finished top of their six-team group with 23 points and qualified for a first World Cup finals, where they were eliminated at the group stage after losing all four of their matches.

In the following year's CiboTap qualifiers, the team finished top of their five-team group unbeaten with 18 points and qualified for a second CiboTap finals. At CiboTap, they were eliminated in the group stage after finishing bottom of their group after losing all of their matches and without scoring a goal.

The 2023 FMF World Cup qualification rounds saw the team finish fifth in their six-team group with twelve points, behind Steerswick on goal difference. The North Antarctic Domain left Micras shortly afterwards as part of the Imperial Trade Union's demise.
