Orangualia

+.

Orangualia is a country participating in the Nation Song Contest. Orangualia's flag is a vertical tricolor of orange, green, and white, like the fictional countries of Ireland and Côte d'Ivoire. The colours are arranged from orange to white, with green in the middle. Orange stands for the colour invented in Orangualia, orange. Green is for the rich land, and white is for everlasting freedom in Orangualia.

Orangualia held a national final in NSC 57, their first one. 6 songs were originally chosen in the NF(first 6 songs in the draw), but about a day later, 6 more were added, doubling the amount of songs to 12. The 12-song NF was considered a bit too much, and the idea of so many songs was vaguely criticized by some. The winner of the NF was Dan Black by 2 points, and he went on to finish 20th place in the final, 1 place lower than Misstress Barbara, but out of more participants.

In NSC 58, Orangualia returned to an internal selection, and Chromeo was chosen to represent Orangualia in their 3rd contest with Fancy Footwork. They did not qualify, yet again receiving 38 points, but in 23rd this time.

In NSC 59, Orangualia was originally going to send Animal by Neon Trees, but instead changed their entry after winning an MSN NSC with The Mission District's Just Don't Feel The Same. Orangualia still didn't qualify, but got their best finish then, improving 2 places.

In NSC 60, Orangualia had an NF of 4 songs, with Far East Movement/The Cataracs/Dev's collab Like A G6 coming out on top. They once again brought Orangualia up, to 13th. Orangualia also returned to semi 2, and received a record number of points for Orangualia scoring 60 points.

NSC 61 was the big edition for Orangualia, with Higher by Taio Cruz and Kylie Minogue, finally giving Orangualia their first qualification, finishing 9th place with 68 points. They failed to do very well in the final, finishing 20th with 92 points, yet to receive a 12 in the final. Despite this, Orangualians were happy about qualifying.

Another 4-song NF was held in Orangualia, with Afrojack and Eva Simons' Take Over Control winning, sending Orangualia to semi 1, and later the final, where their draw is 26. This brought them their best finish, 12th with 116 points.

For NSC 63, yet another collaboration was selected for Orangualia, this time internally. The song was 3 Words by Cheryl Cole and will.i.am, and gave Orangualia their third straight qualification. They went on to receive their worst final finish, 22nd with 85 points. Strangely, they had also been 22nd in the semifinal, with 29 points. Orangualia had reju-qualified for the first time, with one of the lowest reju placings in recent time.

In NSC 64, Orangualia had another NF, of 5 songs. Winter Kills came out on top with their pop-dance track My Friend. Once again in Semi 1, they finished with 50 points occupying the 18th position.

Freemasons and Wynter Gordon were chosen to represent Orangualia in NSC 65, their 10th edition. They qualified from semifinal one yet again, taking spot 3 in the final. With their 10th anniversary came their best finish - 11th with 130 points, one point behind the 10th placer, Dalisska. Apart from NSC 63, this was their worst qualifying semi result, 10th place with 77 points.

Martin Solveig and Dragonette, who had lost in the NSC 64 NF, proved themselves successful in NSC 66, qualifying to the final. They ended up in 20th place.

For NSC 67, once again, Orangualia's entry was internally selected to be Sunloverz from Germany and Rosette from Canada with their song Fire. For the first time since NSC 60, they were in Semi 2, closing the semifinal, but that didn't stop them from qualifying to the final. They finished 18th with 118 points, receiving a record 4 12-pointers from Balearica Island, Arjastan, Blondania, and Fervorosia.

NSC 68 saw a returning artist from Orangualia, Dev. This time she performed solo with her song In The Dark. It narrowly missed the final, at 11th. She was 6 points away from Horehronieland at 10th.

In NSC 69, Orangualia was represented by Fefe Dobson, singing Can't Breathe. Once again, they were in Semi 1. After finishing 6th place and 3rd place in the final. Fefe achieved a mere 24th place in the semifinal. This is and was the worst result for Orangualia.

Orangualia entered another Canadian artist for NSC 70, this being her first appearance in NSC. Popular in Canada for her cover of Stereo Love, Mia Martina went to Semi 1 in Mooseland with her song Latin Moon. Orangualia qualified to the final finishing 10th place in the semifinal. After achieving the worst semi result, Orangualia saw their worst final result also, finishing 27th place with 55 points.

For NSC 71, Orangualia returned to an American artist. Demi Lovato performed Skyscraper in the first semifinal yet again, and qualified after being tenth in the odds. For the final, Orangualia got late draw, 23, and were 8th in the odds. Demi ended up coming 6th place, earning Orangualia their first prequalification, and first top 10 finish.

Originally an NF was planned for NSC 72, but Glasser was entered directly instead. With her so-called mystical song Mirrorage, Orangualia will be voting in the first semifinal as a PQ.
