Default How is this a WORLD cup?
Last 3 winners have been Germany, Spain and Italy. If France win might as well be the EU Cup! Come on England! If not, then you can do this Croatia!

true shame it is, Kazakhstan has been broadcasting Eurovision for the last few years now, and they had been re-watching other past contests as well

they are quite devoted to this, as well as Turkvision where they participate also for quite a lot of years now


as for sports well Zarina Diyas is a good tennis player for them, and football they have 2 teams in champions league qualifying rounds, and 2 in Europa league qualifying rounds
