Bundesvision Song Contest

The Bundesvision Song Contest (short: BuViSoCo) is based on the same named television show by Stefan Raab which was broadcast annually from 2005 to 2015. Artists from all German 'Bundesländer' represent their states. Originally only German language songs were eligible to take part, however this rule is now overridden. In the beginning of the contest's return, BuViSoCo wasn't as popular any more, so each broadcaster was allowed to send an artist from the state (or the now existing respective countries), which had the 'occupying force' after the Second World War.

1: Originally Germany qualified to the final, but due to an error during the broadcast 11th placing Thailand qualified over Germany.
