New king of Spain takes throne

He takes the place of his father, King Juan Carlos, who took the unusual step of standing down to make way for his son after 39 years on the throne.

King Carlos said he wanted to make way for a new generation.

Because of the hardships faced by many people in Spain the ceremony was very simple.

The new king said he wants to serve the country and defend the public interest at all times.

The royal family in Spain have been criticised in recent years and some people in the country are asking if they need a monarchy at all.

3. Which country has won the World Cup the most?

Brazil is the most successful national football team in the history of the World Cup, with five championship wins under their belt. Brazil has also qualified for every World Cup match without the need for playoffs.

2. When did the World Cup first start?

The first ever World Cup match was played in Uruguay in 1930. Thirteen teams from around the world competed, and the host nation Uruguay became the first ever nation to win the world cup with a 4-2 triumph over Argentina.

1. Why do Brazil play in a yellow kit?

The Brazilian team originally played in a white kit, until they lost the World Cup at home in 1950. The kit was then seen as "cursed" and a campaign was launched to design a new one.

An 18-year-old named Aldyr Garcia Schlee came up with the winning design of yellow and green shirts with blue shorts.

The kit was nicknamed the "Canarinha" which means canary.
