Go to Post Just remember, FIRST isn't about the robot, just have fun, meet new people, and try to learn something new. Killing yourself with inhumane amounts of pressure just isn't fun for anyone. - Ian W. [more]

For the first years of FIRST the main focus was on US teams. Making this a way for kids in the US to get exposure to math science and technology. Hence the usfirst.org It has only been in the last few years that there has been a push for FIRST outside the us. Although even with that i believe that the focus of the comp will always be United states based, mainly because of the level of emphasis on America's declining role in the engineering world view and all of the us based companies that support FIRST and that cause. This doesn't go to say that the program won't grow more then it currently is outside the US but I doubt it will ever be the main focus to spread internationally.
