Though it was successful in winning World Cup 15 and has qualified consistently for many years, it holds the record for the most failures to advance from the first round of the World Cup, reaching the second round only six times in twenty-two attempts, and for the largest defeat of any team in the top 50 of the KPB rankings, an 8–1 loss to Krytenia.
History
The Free-Market Republic of Commerce Heights fielded its first international football team, nicknamed the Bulldogs, in the qualifiers for World Cup 7, under the direction of the Commerce Heights Footballing and Soccer Federation (CHFF). Despite their lack of success in qualifying, Manhattanites developed a strong interest in the team, and a record crowd came to Maxisoft Stadium for the Bulldogs’ first qualifying match of World Cup 8, a 4–1 win over Warnocks Wizards. Commerce Heights also won the return match later in qualifying, due to a controversial goal aided by the downdraft of a PariMedia helicopter providing aerial coverage of the game. With several other quality wins, the Bulldogs finished second in their group, earning World Cup qualification. As World Cup 8 was co-hosted by neighboring Bedistan, the team played its first round matches in the International City, on the border between Commerce Heights and Bedistan. Although they won their first match against One Red Dot, defeats against Giant Zucchini and Timway eliminated the Bulldogs.
After qualifying for World Cup 9, the Bulldogs faced another controversy, when they finished the first round tied with Tanah Burung on points, goal difference, and goals scored, but Tanah Burung were allowed to advance based on their victory over Commerce Heights. The CHFF protested to the World Cup Committee, pointing out that the use of head-to-head results had not previously been used or stated as a method of tiebreaking, but they were ignored.
In World Cup 11, Commerce Heights failed to qualify for the first time since their initial attempt. They finished third in their group due in part to a shocking 4–0 loss to Kingsford, advancing them to a qualification playoff. Inexplicably, the second-seeded Bulldogs were drawn against top seeds Giant Zucchini for the playoff, and managed only a draw and a loss. They were not the only highly-ranked team to miss qualification, as the Bedistan Lions failed to even reach the playoff in their “group of death.” Both teams were subsequently invited to the third Cup of Harmony. Despite hopes that the Bulldogs and Lions would face each other in the final, Bedistan were eliminated in the quarterfinal after a clerical error prevented them from receiving a bye. Commerce Heights defeated both hosts, Spaam and Brazillico, and won the Cup of Harmony with an unbeaten record. After the Cup of Harmony, the Bulldogs and Lions played a friendly in the International City, which resulted in an unexciting 0–0 draw.
