[[Burgundie]] comes in a close second with its 8 teams bringing in $4.5 billion. While not a requisite, many of the nations whose teams participate in the league also have national all-star teams who compete in the Olympics and other international competitions. | ||

There they were able to acquire a number of good players coming out of the parochial systems of [[Burgundie]], [[Ultmar]], and [[Fiannria]]. The team picked up victories at 24 of the next 30 minor league cups and was asked to leave the league for the leagueiam majoriam again. In [[1767]], they were formally moved back to [[NordHalle]], this time as the Merchants. They had a smattering of success in the late 18th century but were unable to secure a cup. In [[1809]], they upset the league by advancing and clinching the cup from the [[Béyasar]] TBDs, a decidedly better team by all accounts. | ||
