In what year did Uruguay win the first World Cup title?

• A. 1922
• B. 1930
• C. 1934
• D. 1950

Answer: (B)

The key idea is when the World Cup started and who won the inaugural event. The first FIFA World Cup was held in 1930 in Uruguay, and Uruguay won the tournament, beating Argentina 4‑2 in Montevideo. This victory is Uruguay’s first World Cup title, so 1930 is the correct year. The other years listed aren’t the first World Cup year or Uruguay’s first title: the World Cup didn’t exist in 1922, and 1934 and 1950 were later editions won by other teams (Italy and Brazil, respectively).
