== History ==
LÃ«tzebuerg has got its own league during global season 22. Before this date, Luxembourg users had to play in the surrounding countries. The two first users to join were Neonn and masako on the 1st of February 2004. Both have already left Hattrick, Neonn during the first season and the [[Ocean Dragons]], owned by masako, during their stay in the [[II.3_(LÃ«tzebuerg)|II.3]] in season 10. The country itself grew on a relatively constant base and, nearly reaching the limit of 168 users, the upper limit for all countries starting with three divisions, a division IV was added before the beginning of local season 5, expanding the total capacity to 680 teams. The fourth division began to be filled by the end of June 2005. The country reached 400 users for the first time during February 2007.

The translation of Hattrick into ''LÃ«tzebuergesch'' was completed on the 19th of October 2007 thus making Hattrick the first game ever to be available in the national language of Luxembourg.

At the end of local season 13, there was a major change concerning the regions. LÃ«tzebuerg had seven regions before and 12 after the change. The new regions are [[Iechternach]], [[Miersch]], [[RÃ©iden]], [[RÃ©imech]] and [[Veianen]]. The old regions were given their name in Luxembourgish, whilst two out of them, the former ''Gutland'' and the former ''Ãsling'' were given new names, corresponding to two out of 12 cantons. The change was intended to reproduce the 12 cantons of the real Luxembourg.

After failing to reach the final phase of the U-20 World Cup several times, and the one for World Cup once, U-20 LÃ«tzebuerg managed to qualify for the first time for Round II during the campaign for [[U-20 World Cup XI]].

=== Teams and users ===
The three oldest team as of July 2008 are [[Jeunesse Champion]], [[Belair Allstars]] and [[FC Jeunesse Kanech]]. Only seven teams are nowadays older than the oldest teams founded in division III and only 34 teams founded during 2004 remain. [[Spora]] is the team with the most wins, league and cup wins combined, holding four league and three cup wins. It holds the most league wins alone and the title of the most cup wins together with [[Luxembourg Soccer Club]].

While there have been several foreign national coaches, LÃ«tzebuerg had some of its own being national coach or U-20 team coaches. [[DurdenTyler]], [[ZZ-80]] and [[Woozie]] coached the U-20, [[Bobymoore]] and [[LA-Superjhemp]] (twice) coached the national team. With LA-Superjhemp being responsible for the U-20 and Woozie for the national team, both the U-20 and the national coach are from LÃ«tzebuerg. Many Luxembourg teams also hold national players in order to avoid these players being sabotaged.

== Trophies ==
None yet.

== Luxembourg staff ==
LÃ«tzebuerg was under the surveillance of foreign staff at the beginning. Mod-Bilbo, before he became a GM, and Mod-beppo kept an eye on its conferences. As the country grew, an own Mod soon became a necessity. Mod-sevysak became Mod on the 6th of January 2005 therefore. He left this position on the 1st of July 2006 and was replaced twenty days later by [[Mod-Karlthegreat]], who had already been LA for Deutsch for some months at that time.

* [[GM-Bilbo]] (from Germany, first as a Mod, then as a GM)
* [[Mod-Karlthegreat]] (also LA for LÃ«tzebuergesch, former LA for Deutsch, Editor)
* [[LA-cejot1986]] (LÃ«tzebuergesch)
* [[LA-Superjhemp]] (LÃ«tzebuergesch)

Former staff:
* [[sevysak|Mod-sevysak]]
* [[beppozh|Mod-beppo]] (from France, as long as LÃ«tzebuerg didn't have its own staff)
