The Tellia national football team was the football team which most recently represented the Ashkenatzi autonomous region of Tellia, and previously represented the independent kingdom of the same name. The team was the official successor of Gaia, which was a founding member of the FMF, and as such retained its records. It was most recently a member of the WMFA, after previously being affiliated to the AEFA, and was run by the FGGC.
The team was seen as one of the strongest national sides on Micras, having appeared in six FMF World Cups, winning the 2012 edition and reaching the final in the inaugural tournament as Gaia, and also winning the 2012 and 2013 Benacia Cups.
History
The Tellian national team was created upon the foundation of Tellia in late 2007 as the successor state to the CIS constituent nation of Gaia. Under the name of Gaia, the team was one of the founding members of the FMF when the organisation was created in October 2006 prior to the first FMF World Cup. The national team competed in the tournament, reaching the final before being beaten by Beaugium 1–0 to finish second.
Due to Beaugium's revocation of its Micrasian land claims, Gaia were granted the automatic holders' place in the 2007 FMF World Cup as 2006 runners-up. After advancing from their group, and beating Riponia on penalties in the quarter-finals, the team was well-beaten by co-hosts Tokidoki in the semi-finals and then lost the third-place play-off to Passas.
Prior to the 2008 FMF World Cup qualification tournaments, Gaia was succeeded by Tellia. After resigning their WMFA membership in favour of that of the AEFA, forfeiting their games 5–0 in the process, Tellia were beaten 9–1 by Greenuk in their first AEFA match. Due to the controversial nature of this match, the Tellians withdrew from qualifying and the result was downgraded to a friendly match.
The following year, Tellia returned to the WMFA, and competed in a qualifying group alongside their now-ruling nation, Ashkenatza. The team topped the qualifying group with relative ease, advanced from their finals group in second place, but were beaten 3–2 by Beaugium in the quarter-finals.
In 2010, Tellia qualified unbeaten from a tough group including Beaugium, before finishing rock bottom of their group in the tournament finals with only one win.
The team yet again qualified comfortably from the WMFA confederation in 2011. In the finals, Tellia topped their group, beating holders Craitland in the process, but crashed-out to hosts, and underdogs, Shireroth in the quarter-finals.
The Tellians once again won their qualification group in 2012, ahead of Batavia by a point, to reach the 2012 FMF World Cup and also the first Benacia Cup. In the World Cup, the team dominated their group, winning all three matches 2–0, before beating Shireroth in the quarter-finals and Hamland in the semi-finals. After drawing the final 0–0 against Alexandria, Tellia eventually won 5–4 on penalties to seal their first ever title. The Tellians' success continued later in the year as the team topped their Benacia Cup group before beating Batavia 1–0 in the final.
Following their tournament triumphs in 2012, the Tellians received automatic berths in both the 2013 World Cup and Benacia Cup. In the Benacia Cup, the team topped the five-team group unbeaten with eight points, advancing them to the final, where they beat Sanilla 2–1 after extra time for their second title. Following their Benacia Cup victory, the team were less successful in the year's World Cup, where, after advancing from their group with four points, by virtue of goal difference, they were beaten by Alexandria in the quarter-finals. Tellia left Micras later in the year as part of Ashkenatza's death.
