I'd say the artist doesn't deserve any blame because of what the country does but she's literally in an IDF military band. Also Armenia and Cyprus aren't geographically European but culturally yea so you can kinda justify these and israel. They should add palestine if they're gonna have israel but they're not that cool
Europe isn't even a distinct continent, we're sitting on the same continental plate as the rest of Eurasia, and that plate reaches from Portugal all the way to Japan. Viewing the Bosporus and the Urals as borders has always been a cultural convention, not a material fact.
IIRC entry to the contest is based on whether you use a certain broadcasting platform or w/e based in Europe, so I think North African countries have competed before.
Australia can also participate :)

Europe isn't real, it can't hurt you.
True
For some reason mayos get butthurt when you say Cyprus isn't part of europe
so I do it as often as possible
And they hate it when you say Turkey is a part of Europe
Cyprus is generally considered to be geographically part of Europe. It's all a matter of definition anyways.
