It’s interesting to think what cultural & political factors may influence the voting…

What do you mean Albania gave Serbia & Montenegro one point?

Look at FYR Macedonia for example. All votes were from neighbours or near neighbours

Besides voting for neighbors, I think immigration plays a big role on this. One of the best examples is Turkey (look at which countries voted for them).

Albania gave Serbia one point. Unforunately there is no disctinction between Serbia & Montenegro in the World Map

This is a nice visualization, and seems to clearly show that people vote for their allies. But it could also show that geography plays a part in musical taste. Mind you, when you hear the entries I’m not sure musical tast plays any part at all ;-)

Interesting – how long before the contest divides into East and West?

Poor Andorra – when did it move?

What happened to Andorra? Has it moved for tax reasons, or is it because of global warming?

Having lots of neighbors surely helps, but in the end you can see that countries as remote as Finland gave Serbia 12 points.
