The Tellian Serie A (Tellian/Gaian: Serie A di Tellia), officially known as Telcom Serie A di Tellia, is the top-tier football league in Ashkenatza, organised by the FGGC. Traditionally starting in January, the season finishes in May, with most games being played on the weekends, in particular on Saturdays. Historically a league exclusively for teams from the former Tellian nation, the league opened its doors to two teams from Ashkenatza in 2012 despite having top tier status by the FGGC and not the Ashkenatzi FA. Due to its affiliation with the FGGC, the league is still considered as Tellian and not Ashkenatza.
History
The Tellian Serie A was founded in early January 2006 as the Gaian Serie A as the top-tier league for Gaia and the FGGC. Originally there was 6 founding members, of which 2 have never been relegated in the history of the Serie A (FC Fiorecittà and Vecchiacittà Calcio). This started an initial league of 6 teams, with a feeder side, Tellian Serie B with 6 additional teams, both officiated by the FGGC. Each team plays 10 games each per season, starting initially from March (although this has been now changed to add breaks in between matches) and ending in June (this has now been put forward to May). At the end of each season, 2 teams are relegated to Serie B, with the top two teams being promoted to the Serie A. In 2008, when Gaia deteriorated and eventually became a dead nation, the FGGC switched its allegiance to its adoptive successor state, Tellia, continuing on from the Gaian system.
This system was changed in 2010 ahead of the 2011 season, where only 1 team would be relegated and promoted to and from the Serie A in anticipation of a possible expansion in 2012. From 2012, the league will expand to eight teams and will restore its previous 2 team promotion/relegation system, with an introduction of two Ashkenatzi based teams with a view of the league becoming the top tier for both respective Football Associations and the entire of Ashkenatza.
