Nation Song Contest 22

Nation Song Contest 22 was the 22nd edition of the Nation Song Contest and was hosted by Jastistia, after their first win back in NSC 21 in Alinta. After a long time away from the competition, Saint Joe & Southgulfia finally returned this edition. After failure to vote in NSC 21's Final, Streets ET and Gozitania were forced to withdraw, whereas Scorpionia withdrew voluntarily. Some minor controversy arose around the end of the semi-final stage as Hibernia withdrew from the competition and did not vote, whereas Escotia and direct qualifier Calypso also failed to vote. This led to discussions between the nations as to who would take Calypso's place in the final.
