Arsenal Football Club, based in Islington, London, is an English professional football club. They currently compete in the Premier League, the top division of English football. With a remarkable record, Arsenal has won 13 league titles, including an unbeaten title, and holds the record for the most FA Cup victories with 14 titles. Additionally, they have clinched two League Cups, 16 FA Community Shields, one European Cup Winners' Cup, and one Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. In terms of trophies won, Arsenal ranks as the third-most successful club in English football. In 1893, Arsenal became the first club from the South of England to join the Football League, and they secured promotion to the First Division in 1904. They have been relegated only once, in 1913, and currently hold the longest streak of consecutive seasons in the top division. Arsenal also boasts the second-highest number of top-flight victories in English football history. During the 1930s, the club achieved great success, winning five League Championships and two FA Cups. They continued their triumphs after World War II, securing another FA Cup and two more Championships. In the 1970-71 season, Arsenal achieved their first League and FA Cup Double. From 1989 to 2005, the club enjoyed a period of dominance, winning five League titles and five FA Cups, including two more Doubles. Arsenal ended the 20th century with the highest average league position. Notably, they qualified for the UEFA Champions League for 19 consecutive seasons between 1998 and 2017. Herbert Chapman played a pivotal role in transforming Arsenal's fortunes and guiding the club to its first silverware. He introduced innovative tactics, such as the WM formation, as well as important developments like floodlights and shirt numbers. Chapman also added the iconic white sleeves and brighter red to the club's jersey. Arsène Wenger, the longest-serving manager in Arsenal's history, achieved significant success, winning a record seven FA Cups. His team's unbeaten league run of 49 games between 2003 and 2004 earned them the nickname "The Invincibles." Founded as Dial Square by munitions workers at the Royal Arsenal in Woolwich in 1886, the club moved to Arsenal Stadium in Highbury in 1913, becoming close neighbors with Tottenham Hotspur and igniting the North London derby rivalry. In 2006, they relocated to the Emirates Stadium nearby. Arsenal holds a prominent position in the football world, with an estimated worth of US$2.26 billion according to Forbes, ranking as the world's tenth most valuable football club. They also boast a substantial social media following. The club's motto, "Victoria Concordia Crescit," meaning "Victory Through Harmony," has long been emblematic of their values
