The upcoming Country Cup raised for administrators an interesting question. While some countries have to unite on a geographical basis, to somehow collect three players to participate in the cup, other countries can not decide how to choose the eight participants. The question will be about the national teams of Russia, USA, Ukraine and Germany.
For a start, consider the situation between Ukraine and Germany. Both countries have two captains, each of which wants to declare his team as national team. Also, each captain has a good reason to play in this team. Solution to this problem will come from the rule 'only one team from each country':
I hope that all differences can be resolved peacefully, and if you choose the second option, I am willing to attend the qualifying match, and approve an official national team.
Now consider the situation of the US team. The problem is the large number that wish to take part. USA wants to set up several teams from different regions. Unfortunately, we can not allow to do it, because this tournament is the Country Cup, rather than Regions Cup or anything else.
Firstly, you can follow the example of Russian spaceball. Russia is also too large to be one team. But Russia, like the United States, is a multinational country, so we remember our roots and made three teams to participate – Russia, Belarus and Armenia. You can do the same, to create a team of Mexico or some more. Also, I remind you that the team can be 8 people, it is a lot, try to fill all the available slots.
Secondly, there are some things that may make you refuse to participate – all the matches are held about 20-22 CET and it is difficult to find a suitable host for all, meaning you probably have to play with high ping.
Anyway, Cup will start on June 8, you have a week to shape the team, conduct selection of players and play friendlies with European teams. (btw team of Russia ready to play every evening). Good luck!
If you have other solutions to the problems, discuss it in the comments.

- The first option - the captains of the two teams join together as captain and co-captain, and make the overall team (in this case, because of the existing differences, this option looks bad).
- The second option - the teams play a qualifying match with each other, according to the rules of the Country Cup, and the winner will be the National Team (as far as I know, this option is considered for Ukrainian teams).
I hope that all differences can be resolved peacefully, and if you choose the second option, I am willing to attend the qualifying match, and approve an official national team.
