FSSCG replaced the Football Association of Yugoslavia, which was founded in 1919. It was run exactly the same way but the name changed. In 2006, Montenegro opted to declare independence thus breaking the union with Serbia. Both countries formed new football associations accordingly:
Serbia inherited the former Yugoslavia and Serbia and Montenegro spot in UEFA and FIFA[1][2][3] while Montenegro became the newest member to join the two organizations.
