I'm from Switzerland!

There is only one Swiss team in Fifa 2000!
Why?
There isn't the national-team and there aren't any UEFA-Cup-teams!
Why?
Is Libanon or Israel more important than Switzerland?

Does anybody have a patch for the Swiss League?

And no republic of Ireland either!
I can't believe that!
No Switzerland, Ireland, Wales and many other teams - yet EA but in Taiwan and Singapore?!?!?!
I'm going to try to contact EA about this.
The game is clearly aimed at the US market - all the US MLS teams have detailed kits.

oh well, hope u manage to put a Swiss team together!

Just want to disabuse you of this preconception that EA makes this game for USA market- it doesn't!
I read somewhere that this game does huge business all around the world but not much at all in USA, in fact im sure FIFA series is last in USA behind all their other sports games like NHL and Madden series.

even though NHL and NFL and all those games are more popular in the US, still with FIFA 2000 they tried to make it as US attractive as possible, look at how detailed the MLS is and how crap the Brazilian and partly the Italian league is with all those players missing. What's next a Canadian league?, those lousy pricks at EA only care about the about their little world.

Look,
It's like this EA don't care how good a club/team is all they care about is how big the market is in that perticular area.
I really doubt that there is a huge number
of people in Switzerland who play the FIFA
games, well atleast not as many as in Isreal.

Switzerland has population of about 7 million to Israel of about 5 million. GNP in Switzerland is about 30,000 dollars per person, one of the highest gnp's in the world! higher than USA even. GNP in Israel is about $11,000. I think the market for this game in Switzerland is much bigger than the market in Israel, but enough about that....

I agree with you you named 3 leagues which deserve to be included i don't know why they are not included but imagine it is because of contract reasons, maybe those leagues demanded too much money or maybe they have deals for games with another company

I'm European and feel that EAC should place more South American, Asian, African, etc... teams because playing with Manc and Milan starts to get boring.
