* '''tulbaiganin''' <small>(sg. only)</small> — the Eastern Bloc's "Olympics". The name comes from Soenyŏk ''tulbaygŏnin'' "the Tournament", as it was first organized in Soenyŏ-tave in 6386 (3842<sub>12</sub>) as a protest reaction from the Soenyŏ communist government against the organization of the (until-then-)worldwide Réménaso Games's 'bourgeois' decision of allowing professional sportsmen. Soenyŏ-tave's allies (and therefore the Inquisition too) as well as many other communist or socialist states stopped participating in the Réménaso for the Tulbaygŏnin. | * '''tulbaiganin''' <small>(sg. only)</small> — the Eastern Bloc's "Olympics".

** The term Tulbaygŏnin was first used in the Kaiṣamā era for the pan-Union biennial sporting events - in Chlouvānem, however it was called ''rašvātṛcamijaṃšā''. The eighteen Kaiṣamā countries, actually, did participate in the Réménaso Games under a single flag. | ** The term Tulbaygŏnin was first used in the Kaiṣamā era for the pan-Union biennial sporting events - in Chlouvānem, however it was called ''rašvātṛcamijaṃšā''.

* ''yalkhaitah'' — a typical ball sport originally from the tropical areas of the Inquisition (basically like [[w:Footvolley|futevôlei]] but with three players for team). It is the most popular team sport in the Chlouvānem Inquisition, played on natural beaches by the sea and rivers as well as artificial fields inland, but is not that popular abroad except for some other countries of the Eastern bloc. | |||
** ''jñilā'' — "stadium" for ''yalkhaitah'' (the name is ultimately taken from a local vernacular, derived from Chl. ''ajñīlāṇa'', collective noun from ''ajñīh'' "fence") | |||

* ''tēyakaitsūh'' <small>AKA ''(parts of the Far West)''</small> ''dįbhaitah'' — so-called "Fárásenian football" or "Islanders' football" (Cer.: ''cósutióren róšoné''), it is a football game that was born in the colonies of Western powers in the Cétore archipelago off northwestern Fárásen, merging together elements of Western football codes (which were being developed at the time) with rules taken from ball games of Fárásenian natives; playing rules and the pitch's overall shape, as well as (parts of) the goal posts are comparable to Australian rules football, but the field is divided into different areas partially restricting movement. From its Fárásenian birthplace, it was introduced to other Western colonies and, through contact with pre-Consolidation Chlouvānem states, also into the territories that would later become the present-day Inquisition, where it gained a huge popularity, almost as much as many traditional sports. In fact, the Inquisition is today one of the countries where this game is most popular (together with many countries of Fárásen and Ogúviutón, as well as - because of Chlouvānem influence - the former Kaiṣamā), so that there is, yearly, both a league and a cup tournament very popular among Chlouvānem people, and the Inquisition is the most-titled national team in the sport, with six World Cup wins. The Inquisition also hosted the 6417 (3869<sub>12</sub>) Islanders' Football World Cup - which it won -, notable as the first and so far only time in recent history the Inquisition hosted a worldwide international event open also to nations from the Western bloc and sphere of influence. | |||
** ''mūrkadhānavīyi tēyakaitsūvi samvītami fildeṃlāṇa'' (colloquially ''mūtēsafi'') — Championship of the Inquisitorial Tēyakaitsūh League | |||
** ''tēyakaitsūvi camihælškas'' — Grand Tēyakaitsūh Cup | |||
* ''lūmehaitah'' <small>AKA ''(Northwest, some areas in the North)''</small> ''kaṣṭyoran'' <small>AKA ''(Northeast, except Hokujāši and Aratāram isl.)''</small> ''dįbhaitah'' — so-called "Evandorian football" or ''cósutióren'' (ultimately from [[Nordulaki|Nor.]] ''kosteyôrn'', meaning "goal-ball"), the most popular game in many Calémerian countries, invented in Nordûlik as a 'compromise coding' of earlier ball games played at village fairs and further developed in its early years. Its modern form may be described as somewhat reminescent of soccer but with elements of both gridiron football (equipment, plus hands are used too) and Gaelic football (notably the goals), with also some major differences such as the field being divided in sectors that give different points and a strip close to the goal where only the defending goalkeeper is allowed.<br/>In the Inquisition, it is most commonly known as ''lūmehaitah'' (''lūme-'' being often cited as an example of a Chlouvānem [[w:Cranberry morpheme|Cranberry morpheme]], originally standing for ''lūmaisetų'' "from Auralia"), but also, in the Northwest and parts of the North, with the Cerian loan ''kaṣṭyoran'', and in the Northeast by the native compound ''dįbhaitah'' (kick-ball), which however is, in most of the country, only used as a collective term for ''tēyakaitsūh'', ''lūmehaitah'', and similar games. Evandorian football is not as practiced in the Inquisition as in many other countries of the planet, being dwarfed in popularity by all traditional sports and also by its "sibling" ''tēyakaitsūh'', and while the Inquisition never got to qualify in the Cósutióren World Championship, possibly the most watched single-sport tournament on the planet, its national team got some decent results in the Márusúturonian Cup, with a best result of runner-up (against Karynaktja in 6407 (385Ɛ<sub>12</sub>) and against Aréntía in 6415 (3867<sub>12</sub>). | |||
