Nice quiz, but the alphabetic order would be appreciated.

Hi there. They look like they've been arranged haphazardly, but actually they are in the order of when they first appeared in contest history (top to bottom, from left to right). I felt that was most apropos, but I could change it to alphabetical if people prefer. Glad you enjoyed the quiz.

According to Wikipedia, the Styrian and Mühlviertlerisch dialects have also been used. You also need to update with Pontic Greek and Crimean Tatar. :)

Knowing 'That's Eurovision' by heart is quite useful in this case. I noticed I missed a few languages that are in the song, but not in this quiz. So I found a Wikipedia that listed every single language in chronological order. Perhaps you could include them.😅
