The "Eurovision" organizers had a very noble idea: to merge the scattered after the Second World War European countries in a single burst of music. The competition is held annually since 1956 (firstly in Switzerland), and is one of the most popular non-sporting events in the world, with an audience of 600 million viewers! "Eurovision" is also broadcasts in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Canada, Egypt, India, Lebanon, South Africa, South Korea, the United States and some other countries, despite the fact that they do not participate in the competition and are outside Europe. Since 2000, the competition is constantly broadcast in the Internet. Compared with 1956 the number of artists increased in 9 times: instead of 7 countries now there are 39 competing ones. By the way, recently Australia is on board! Many artists believe that the "Eurovision" is a great step to the global popularity. This very competition has opened ABBA, Brainstorm and singer Celine Dion to the world. In 2016 singer Jamala brought victory for Ukraine from Stockholm.
