music the countries would be intertwined in post-war Europe. So on the 24 th of May, the first

small stage. So over the years, a lot of things changed in the Eurovision Song contest. For
instance, technical improvements took place, like better microphones, a bigger stage with a
lot of lamps and a lot of more improvements. New countries, like Australia, were also
allowed to participate. Also the appearance changed. In the beginning, won the country
which had the best song. Nowadays, most of the time the country wins which has the best
performance. So over the years the Eurovision Song contest changed and became bigger and
