Waiting List Song Contest 218

For more information about the 218th contest and the actual show go to the thread.
The Waiting List Song Contest 218 was the 218th edition of the Waiting List Song Contest. The contest was held in Leechtown, Tamausia & Deltannor, following the nation's victory in the previous edition. This was the third time that the contest had been hosted in Tamausia & Deltannor, and the first time on the island of Deltannor. The edition coincided with the 200th anniversary of Tamausi-Deltannese independence and the downfall of the Kingdom of Tanadia, therefore the edition was themed to celebrate these events. The official slogan of the contest was 'Celebrate Your Heritage'.
The contest was won by Oussou Empire with the song 'Left & Right' by Malou Prytz.
==Location ==
The city of Leechtown was selected as the host city, making this edition the first to ever be held on Deltannor. Unlike when Tamausia & Deltannor hosted WLSC Congratulations 7 there was no official bidding phase, instead Leechtown was chosen internally due to the city's historical and cultural significance. Leechtown is the 4th largest city in the country and the 3rd largest in Deltannor. The city is one of the oldest settlements in Tamausia & Deltannor, and is home to the Tamausi-Deltannese Archives, which store some of the most treasured artifacts and writings from throughout the nation's history. The city's name is an anglicisation of its Tamausi-Deltannese name Vilaliech, literally meaning 'bed-town'. It is believed that this name was given to the city by the first Grand Duchess of Tamausia & Deltannor, Connorelia Welchus, as it was the first place that she rested after discovering and landing on the island of Deltannor.
The show was held in Leechtown's opera house, the Hall of Melodies. The venue was first opened in 1896 and seats 1350 spectators.

=== Theme===
As the edition coincided with the 200th anniversary of Tamausia & Deltannor's independence from the former Kingdom of Tanadia, the show was themed around this event and shared the story of the founding of the nation as told in 'The Legend of Tamausia & Deltannor', one of the country's most treasured texts. The official slogan for the show was 'Celebrate Your Heritage', and participating nations were encouraged to share parts of their heritage with one-another.
===Host===
The results show was hosted by Connorelia Welchus, the first Grand Duchess of Tamausia & Deltannor, some 146 years after her death. This makes her the first and only host of the Waiting List Song Contest so far to be deceased at the time of the competition.
