WorldVision Song Contest

This article is copied off a source.

The WorldVision Song Contest is an annual music competition between different countries in NationStates. The contest is similar to the Eurovision Song Contest, as all participating countries submit one song to perform on television, and then vote on the songs from other countries, to decide the most popular song. The contest was originally started to promote world peace, but that theme quickly died down during the very first contest, with the hosts of the second edition anouncing that they will stand for free speech, rather than a political theme. Now, although the contest serves no real political purpose, it has helped popularise many of the participating songs inside and outside the participating countries, although some of the songs have been mostly forgotten after the contest they were entered.
