Qatar's 2022 coinage program accompanied the FIFA World Cup, the first held in the Middle East — a tournament whose awarding to Qatar in 2010 triggered years of geopolitical controversy, corruption investigations at FIFA, and a fundamental rethinking of international tournament scheduling, moving the event from its traditional summer slot to November–December to avoid lethal heat.
