Template:ESC 1956 participants/doc

Description

{{ESC [Year] participants}}

Produces a list of all countries which participated in a given edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, with links to their respective "country-in-contest-by-year" articles (e.g. Germany in the Eurovision Song Contest 1956). Individual templates exist for each contest; changing the year will result in a different list of countries being presented.

• Country names which have been striked out (e.g. Belarus) represent countries which had originally been confirmed as participants for that edition but whose participant was subsequently nullified prior to the event. If an article or redirect exists then this entry may still be linked (e.g. Belarus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021).

• Country names which are shown in italics (e.g. Estonia) indicates that this country failed to progress to the contest from a qualifying round, either Kvalifikacija za Millstreet, the pre-selection show for new countries ahead of the Eurovision Song Contest 1993, or the 1996 contest's qualifying round. If an article or redirect exists then this entry may still be linked (e.g. Estonia in the Eurovision Song Contest 1993).
