The FIDE World Cup Qualifiers are a mixture of continental championships and zonals. The European continent has a continental championship only, while the other continents have both. The only information I can find about these events is on the
FIDE Calendar 2007. The following events are listed and appear to be qualifiers.

I assume the European Individual Chess Championship is the Continental Championship, but I include the EU Chess Championship because I'm not sure what the difference is.

Later: It occurred to me afterwards that the EU Chess Championship is for the 27 countries (25 before 1 January 2007) that make up the European Union. I doubt that it is a qualifier for the World Cup.
