== WorldDipCon ==
During the 1970s, there were very few [[Diplomacy (game)|Diplomacy]] tournaments outside North America. At that time, the winner of the tournament held at American DipCon was considered by the North American players as a world champion of [[Diplomacy (game)|Diplomacy]].

The WorldDipCon (World Diplomacy Convention) was created in 1988 and the winner of the tournament held at this convention becomes the world champion of [[Diplomacy (game)|Diplomacy]].

The players taking the top three places in each WorldDipCon tournament are listed below:

== North America ==
=== DipCon ===

The winner of the DipCon (Diplomacy Convention) tournament is the North American champion. The title of North American champion was not given at the beginning, but since 1972 has been awarded to each winner of the convention tournament. DipCon was created in 1966 and occurred each year (except in 1967 and 1968). There was no tournament in 1966<ref>DipCon I held in Youngstown, OH, and hosted by John Koning in his home, 31 August, 1666.</ref>, 1969<ref>DipCon II held in Youngstown, OH, because "...we had so much fun last time, let's do it again."</ref> and 1971.

The winner of each DipCon North American Championship tournament:

=== Origins of the Bismark Cup ===

In the early 1980's the Diplomacy scene in Australia was built around several PBM Diplomacy magazines, of which the most significant titles were Rumplestiltskin, The Go Between, Beowulf, Victoriana, The Journal of Australian Diplomacy, and The Envoy. Most of the torunament players were subscribers, players and editors of these magazines. The Envoy, which was published between 1986 and 1991, ran a series of articles which were both popular and influential. Purportedly written by Arthur von Bismark and styled as lecture transcripts, the character of Arthur von Bismark became celebrated among the contemporary Diplomacy subculture in Australia.

The aricles were popular at a time when tournament play in Australia had become more organized, with well-attended tournaments in Adelaide, Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney. Rating systems at the time were being hotly debated and many players desired a way to assess the best player in the torunament scene for a calendar year, as a way of overcoming the perceived inconsistencies of rating systems within one event. The annual trophy concept was accepted among the then-principle organizers of these tournaments and the title Arthur Bismark Cup was suggested by The Envoy's then-editor Mathew Gibson.

The real author of these Arthur von Bismark articles was never announced publicly, but was suspected as being either Harry Kolotas, Marion Ashworth, Neil Ashworth or Luke Clutterbuck.
