The latest international break might be over, but the narratives and debates surrounding various national teams are only likely to grow in the run-up to Euro 2024.
With the conclusion of Tuesday's play-off finals, the 24 teams who will be competing in Germany this summer have finally been confirmed.
The likes of France, England, Germany and Portugal are among the bookies' favourites to win the tournament, which gets underway when the hosts take on Scotland in Munich on June 14.
Meanwhile, Georgia will be competing at their first major tournament after a dramatic victory over Greece on penalties in the play-off final, while several other emerging footballing nations such as Albania and Romania will hope to make their mark on the big stage.
Below, we will show you teams info from Group A to Group C, including who to look out for, how they got to Euro 2024 and which coaches will be hoping to write themselves into the record books this summer.
Group A
Germany
It's been a tough time for Germany over recent years, with this summer's hosts crashing out in the group stage at successive World Cups, while they also endured a disappointing last-16 exit to England at Euro 2020.
They've faced a similarly tumultuous period since, with a dire run of form in a series of international friendlies - given they don't have to qualify for Euro 2024 - seeing them lose five out of eight games in the aftermath of the 2022 World Cup.
This included defeats to Japan, Colombia, Poland, Austria and Turkey, resulting in the departure of Hansi Flick and the appointment of Julian Nagelsmann as manager.
There had been fears among Germany fans that this summer could turn out to be a wholly embarrassing one.
However, victories against France and the Netherlands over the past week has raised hopes again and you can never rule out the Germans in a major tournament.
One to watch - Toni Kroos
While perhaps not your ordinary 'one to watch' candidate, the reversal of Toni Kroos' international retirement, bringing an end to a three-year exile from the national team, has seemingly already had a transformational impact on Nagelsmann's side.
He helped to stabilise an under-performing midfield and even laid on an assist within seven seconds on his return against France, with Nagelsmann labelling him 'unbelievable' and an 'extraordinary player' after that clash.
Manager - Julian Nagelsmann
There is no doubt Nagelsmann's sacking by Bayern Munich last year was a major setback for one of Germany's most highly-rated coaches.
With three wins from six games, he still has lots to prove in charge of the national team, but performances over the past week suggest the 36-year-old is starting to get his ideas across.
Danger Rating: 4/5
Scotland
Steve Clarke deserves enormous credit for guiding Scotland to their second successive Euros after the Tartan Army had previously experienced a 14-year hiatus from the competition.
He oversaw a memorable qualification campaign that included a victory over Spain, before they secured their place in Germany with two games to spare.
With one defeat over eight games, Clarke has built a hugely impressive young team, although heavy defeats to England, France and the Netherlands, plus a shock loss to Northern Ireland on Tuesday, have tempered expectations, with Scotland having not won in seven games.
One to watch - Scott McTominay
Scott McTominay's seven goals in eight qualifying games were only bettered by Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane, demonstrating how impressive the Man United midfielder was.
The 27-year-old is also enjoying his most prolific season at club level and if Scotland are to make their mark in Germany, McTominay's late bursts into the box will have to be timed to perfection.
Manager - Steve Clarke
The former West Brom boss has been a revelation since taking over Scotland in 2019, winning almost half of his 53 games in charge - a record unthinkable at the time of his appointment.
But not only has he massively improved things on the pitch, but the whole of Scotland is firmly united behind their team and that is something which could prove to be powerful in Germany this summer.
Danger Rating: 2/5
Hungary
The proverbial 'dark horses' ahead of this tournament, Hungary's growing football stature was on full display when they thumped England 4-0 in the Nations League in 2022.
With a talented generation led by Liverpool star Dominik Szoboszlai, the Eastern European nation are on a 14 match unbeaten streak and will fancy their chances of causing some upsets this summer after an unbeaten qualifying campaign.
One to watch - Dominik Szoboszlai
The 23-yearold is the poster boy for this new crop of Hungarian talent and his impact at Anfield since his £60m move has been immense.
Szoboszlai is a hero at home and he already has 17 goal contributions in just 40 caps, highlighting his importance to Marco Rossi's side.
Manager - Marco Rossi
Experienced Italian coach Rossi had endured somewhat of a nomadic career across the lower leagues of Italy, Hungary and Slovakia before taking over the Hungarian national team in 2018.
But his impact has proved to be transformative, overseeing 32 wins in 62 games which included an impressive second place finish in a Nations League group alongside England, Germany and Italy.
Danger Rating - 3/5
Switzerland
Switzerland have qualified for the knockout stages at the five most recent tournaments they've been at and their experienced squad will hope to do so again.
Several familiar names such as Granit Xhaka, Xherdan Shaqiri and Fabian Schar are all on the wrong side of 30, but they should have at least one last tournament in them.
However, Murat Yakin's side will need to improve following a rather underwhelming qualifying campaign that saw them win just four of their 10 games and finish five points adrift of minnows Romania.
One to watch - Granit Xhaka
It is hard to look past Switzerland's most-capped player, with Granit Xhaka making his 123rd international appearance against the Republic of Ireland on Tuesday.
The midfielder, who is enjoying a fine season with Bayer Leverkusen, will need to be at his tempo-setting best if Yakin's outfit are to be a force to be reckoned with in Germany.
Manager - Murat Yakin
The former Swiss defender is another to endure a nomadic career, with Yakin managing six clubs in his homeland, plus Spartak Moscow, although he has never spent more than two years in a job.
His record with the national team is respectable, as Yakin has won 14 of his 32 games in charge.
Danger Rating - 2/5
Group B
Spain
After a tumultuous period off the field for Spanish football, Luis de la Fuente has restored calm on the pitch for the men's team, with Spain another side fancied for glory at Euro 2024.
His squad sees a mix of hugely promising young stars such as Pau Cubarsi, Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, coupled with experienced campaigners like Aymeric Laporte, Rodri and Alvaro Morata.
A 1-0 defeat by Colombia and 3-3 draw against Brazil over the past week hints that this side is by no means the finished product, but La Roja will still have high hopes heading into Germany.
One to watch - Lamine Yamal
While it is hard to put too much expectation on a 16-year-old, everything about Yamal hints he is a star of the present and future.
After becoming Spain's youngest-ever player, he also became their youngest scorer when netting on his debut against Georgia and the Barcelona wonderkid could be on the brink of a breakout summer.
Manager - Luis de la Fuente
The solid if unspectacular candidate to take over from Luis Enrique, De La Fuente knows his squad from time working as Spain's Under 19, Under 21 and Under 23s boss.
Despite the unassuming nature of his appointment, Spain have scored a whopping 30 goals in just 12 games in charge, showing they are not ones to be taken lightly this summer.
Danger Rating: 4/5
Croatia
Despite a population of just over four million, Croatia continue to overachieve in international tournaments.
Although many teams had supposed better squads on paper at the 2022 World Cup, Zlatko Dalic's side became greater than the sum of their parts and secured a stunning third place finish.
Croatia's qualifying display wasn't their best given they only edged out Wales during the final round of fixtures, but their tournament performances, plus a second place finish in the Nations League means they are likely to upset the odds again in what will surely be Luka Modric's last dance.
One to watch - Mateo Kovacic
Mateo Kovacic often goes slightly under the radar due to the esteemed company he has in midfield, but the Man City star's role in Croatia's success cannot go unnoticed.
Kovacic will bring class and poise alongside Modric and is set to win his 100th cap this summer, demonstrating how crucial he is to his country's success.
Manager - Zlatko Dalic
Over his seven-year tenure, Dalic has taken Croatia above and beyond their dreams, combining his experienced stars with several promising young talents.
With a win ratio of exactly 50 per cent - and his record in major tournaments - Dalic continues to do a fine job.
Danger Rating - 3.5/5
Italy
The Azzurri were mired in chaos in the summer when Roberto Mancini walked out to join Saudi Arabia just before crunch qualifying games against North Macedonia and Ukraine.
However, Luciano Spalletti stepped in and despite further off-field chaos in subsequent international breaks, the former Napoli boss helped Italy qualify for Euro 2024 by virtue of a superior head-to-head record on Ukraine.
Despite their Euro 2020 triumph, Italy's major tournament record over the past decade has been pretty dismal and their position as a fourth seed this time around is unlikely to help.
However, with a squad full of talent, Italy will hope to overcome this and remind everyone that it is just a fluke they haven't reached a World Cup since 2014.
One to watch - Mateo Retegui
A major struggle for Italy over recent years has been in attack, with a succession of strikers tried without success.
But a 24-year-old born in Argentina could just prove to be the answer with Mateo Retegui, who was naturalised in March of last year, having now netted four goals in six caps for the Azzurri.
For all of Italy's technical qualities in midfield, Retegui's goals could prove to be the difference come the summer.
Manager - Luciano Spalletti
Parachuted in when Italian football was verging on crisis, Spalletti deserves huge credit for navigating Italy to Euro 2024.
A highly-rated coach throughout his time in Italy, his high watermark came when lifting Serie A with Napoli last year, before he answered the call from his country in September after previously planning to take a year-long sabbatical at his Tuscan farm.
Danger Rating - 3.5/5
Albania
A quick scan of Albania's squad would see few names familiar with Premier League fans bar Fulham striker Armando Broja and Brentford reserve keeper Thomas Strakosha.
However, after reaching their first and only ever major tournament at Euro 2016, it is proving to be somewhat of a Golden Generation after Albania topped a qualifying group that included Poland and the Czech Republic.
Successive defeats to Chile and Sweden highlight the task at hand, but Albania previously romped to the tournament by enjoying an eight-match unbeaten run.
One to watch - Armando Broja
Although the Chelsea loanee has struggled for form and gametime since swapping Stamford Bridge for Craven Cottage, high expectations are on Broja's shoulders if Albania are to cause trouble for their Euro 2024 opponents.
With four goals in 19 caps, the Slough-born striker's performances will be key for the country where his parents were born.
Manager - Sylvinho
Former Barcelona and Arsenal left back Sylvinho continues to have an impressive impact with Albania after short stints managing Corinthians and Lyon.
To add even more intrigue to his story and how he became coach of a country light years away from his native Brazil in football terms, his assistant coach is former Man City favourite Pablo Zabaleta.
Danger Rating - 1.5/5
Group C
Slovenia
Qualifying automatically for Euro 2024 was a memorable moment for Slovenia, who have reached their first European Championship since 2000.
That makes their rise over the past few years even more impressive after Slovenia won seven of their 10 games and finished on the same number of points as Denmark in qualifying.
Tuesday's memorable 2-0 victory over Portugal made it seven victories in nine and the display will provide Matjaz Kek's side with plenty of optimism for Euro 2024.
One to watch - Benjamin Sesko
Despite long-term Atletico Madrid keeper Jan Oblak helping to hold the side together, Benjamin Sesko is one of the hottest-rated strikers on the planet right now.
After two impressive seasons with Red Bull Salzburg, he has similarly impressed since switching to their sister club RB Leipzig.
Manager - Matjaz Kek
Kek, who was a relative journeyman across Slovenia and Austria in his playing career, is another coach to have enjoyed a long-winding journey to this summer's tournament.
Stints in his homeland, Saudi Arabia and Croatia have been sandwiched by two spells as Slovenia boss, with Kek helping his nation reach the 2010 World Cup in his original tenure.
Overall, Kek- who returned to the role in 2018 - has won 46 of his 102 games in charge and will hope to lead his nation to more upsets at Euro 2024.
Danger Rating - 1.5/5
Denmark
Denmark were one of the most disappointing sides at the 2022 World Cup after they finished bottom of their group, which came off the back of an emotionally-fuelled ride to the Euro 2020 semi-finals.
Kasper Hjulmand - who kept his job despite the dire tournament in Qatar - oversaw a steady, if unspectacular qualifying campaign, with Denmark only ousting Slovenia at the top of their group by virtue of the head-to-head record.
One to watch - Rasmus Hojlund
Recent months have shown just why Man United spent £70m on a relatively unproven 20-year-old striker.
Rasmus Hojlund, now 21, has enjoyed a fine start to his international career, netting seven times in eight qualifiers and his goals will be crucial if Hjulmand's side are to right the wrongs of that World Cup disaster.
Manager - Kasper Hjulmand
After stints at Danish sides Lyngby, Nordsjaelland and German side Mainz - where Hjulmand replaced Thomas Tuchel - the 51-year-old took over Denmark after a second spell at Nordsjaelland.
His record in the Denmark role, where he has won 31 of 49 games, points to the fact that Hjulmand has all the tools needed to oversee a much-improved tournament performance.
Danger Rating - 3/5
Serbia
Despite a hugely talented squad on display, 2024 will be the first time Serbia have qualified for the Euros since the country split from Montenegro in 2006.
Group stage exits at three of the past four World Cups has done little to assert their influence on the international stage, but there remains some impressive quality in the squad including Aleksandar Mitrovic, Filip Kostic and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
There is room to improve though, with Serbia's qualifying campaign seeing them win just half of their games and only narrowly edge out Montenegro to automatic qualification.
One to watch - Aleksandar Mitrovic
The former Fulham favourite is already Serbia's record goalscorer at the age of 29 and continues to be their talisman.
A £50m move to Al-Hilal following 14 Premier League goals last season hasn't halted his form, with Mitrovic netting 31 times in 34 games for the Saudi Pro League side.
Manager - Dragan Stojkovic
Dragan Stojkovic's time in the dugout has taken him far-and-wide, with a six-year spell at Japanese side Nagoya Grampus followed by five years with former Chinese Super League side Guangzhou R&F.
After taking over his home nation in 2021, the former Yugoslavia star has won 21 of his 37 games, and he will be desperate to improve on their disappointing World Cup when they picked up just one point.
Danger Rating - 2.5/5
England
This feels like the time for Gareth Southgate's England side - who were runners-up at Euro 2020 - after another pretty flawless qualification campaign that saw them remain unbeaten.
England's squad is settled, having been together for a number of years, while it is sprinkled with stardust with the likes of Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka all in the running for the best players in the world in their positions.
A defeat to Brazil and draw with Belgium has sent a reminder that the Three Lions still have plenty of work to do, but when Southgate's lengthy injury list eases, things will look a lot better.
One to watch - Jude Bellingham
It's harsh to ignore Kane, but Bellingham's impact since moving to Real Madrid has been astonishing, with the Birmingham City youth product netting 20 goals in just 31 games.
His quality, attitude and leadership has already seen him become England's talisman, evidenced by his last-gasp equaliser against Belgium and his displays in midfield will hold the key to the Three Lions in Germany.
Manager - Gareth Southgate
Despite his tenure entering an eighth year, Southgate continues to be much-maligned among England fans for his perceived negative tactics.
But after 57 wins from 93 games, you can't argue with Southgate's record and ahead of his contract expiring later this year, it feels as if England's performance at Euro 2024 will define the 53-year-old's time in charge.
Danger Rating - 5/5
