Rarungan entered for the first time at the qualification phase of 68th World Cup, but never come back again to the competition. Soracana Islands try their luck in World Cup competition by entering the 85th World Cup qualifying round. They failed to qualify and never went back again. Pemecutan was the latest to test the World Cup euphoria by entering the 86th World Cup cycle. They success to qualify for the first time in their 3rd appearance in World Cup cycle and have been qualify to World Cup ever since. Their best performance was at the 90th World Cup edition where they came out as the runner-up of the competition. In other competitions, Pemecutan also have a better result than the other constituent states. They managed to win 3 titles of CMFA Mandalanusa Cup consecutively. While Soracana Islands only managed to become a runner-up twice.

TEAM IMAGE
Kits
Sidartha Textile is again trusted to create the jersey of the national team. The company was created the latest jersey of Pemecutan national football team before the unification. It consists of 3 sets of jersey, home, away and goalkeeper jersey. They use the 6 national colors for the base color of the kits. Blue, red and white are use in the home jersey. Green, yellow and white are used for the away jersey. While black and white are used by the goalkeeper. Differ from their previous design for Pemecutan, UMS national team jersey is quite plain and simple with less pattern except for the checkerboard pattern applied in the home jersey shirt and a washed-up pattern on the short of the goalkeeper jersey. Despite the simple design, it is still praise by the officials, players and supporters.
Although they are a new team, but the media had already given them a nickname. The first nickname given by the media to the team is Laskar Astabhumi (The Eight Realms Army). The nickname is given based on the fact that the country is consists of 8 constituent states who were formerly an independent country of their own. The second nickname is recently given, and it is circulated in the social media and spread for the first time by the supporters. The name is Sadwarna who is based on the country's national color. United Mandaran States has 6 national colors, blue, green (Islamic green), yellow (gold yellow), black, white and red. The colors are present in the flag of its constituent states.
Homebase

TACTIC AND FORMATION
Style: +3.5
Preferred Formation: 4-3-3 (with variation)
Manager Surya Agung Pramana using his strategy during him leading Pemecutan team by adopting the 4-3-3 formation which is a signature of Pemecutan. However, this formation is actually not Pramana's favorite formation. He was specialized in 4-4-2 formation, but when he uses this formation at the start of his career in Pemecutan national team, it didn't go well. Then he went back to use 4-3-3 formation as a legacy of the former manager, Agung Suryanantha. Despite using the 4-3-3 format, when helming United Mandaran States, Pramana suggested that he will try a variation of the formation. This in line with his perception of Cakranegaran and Toluiwan players who are more adapted in a defensive formation.
