    The Czech Republic and Georgia also made their debuts.

  • 2007 The semi-final

    The ten that went through were Serbia, Hungary, Turkey, Belarus, Latvia, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Georgia, Macedonia and Moldova.

  • 2009 Georgia

    Georgia and Russia had fought a war the previous summer, and Georgia's first decision was not to go to Moscow at all.

  • 2009 Georgia

    The EBU ruled that the song broke the ban on political content, and on 10 March asked Georgia to change the words or send something else.

    Georgia returned after its year away, and that made 39.

  • 2010 The result

    Georgia, back from its year of absence, came ninth, its best result so far.

  • 2012 New languages

    Nor had Georgian, which made its first appearance in Georgia's song.

  • 2014 Jurors in the open

    In the final, every member of Georgia's jury had ranked the songs identically, from three points all the way up to twelve.

  • 2014 Jurors in the open

    The EBU called that a statistical impossibility, threw the jury's votes out and used Georgia's televote alone.

  • 2015 What went wrong

    A smoke machine malfunctioned during Georgia's song, and for a few moments Nina Sublatti vanished from her own performance inside a grey cloud.

  • 2022 Six juries

    In the second semi-final, six national juries — those of Azerbaijan, Georgia, Montenegro, Poland, Romania and San Marino — had shown irregular voting patterns.
