History

The All-Craitland was founded in 2003 as the primary ólbescból competition in Craitland. The first five championships were held between the six Craitish provincial teams. In 2008, following the foundation of the territories of Incontinentia, New Vaduz and Zandarijn the previous year, the competition was expanded to include their national sides and was changed to its current format. Mercury first entered the competition in 2013, becoming the tenth team to play in the Championship, with Senya's addition in 2017 bringing the number of competing sides to eleven. From 2020, the Championship will comprise twelve teams, with the best-placed national team from the year's All-Mercury Ólbescból Championships receiving an invitation to compete.
