Armenia

Armenia has participated in the Eurovision Song Festival 17 times since making its debut in 1. The country placed within the top 10 a total of six times, including three top 5 finishes and even a top 3 finish. While it maintained a 100% qualification streak until edition eight, the country has since then failed to qualify for the final three times. The country is yet to win the Eurovision Song Festival.
==History==
On 18 October 2016, Armenia appeared on the participants list of the first edition of the Eurovision Song Festival. Armenia selected Sirusho with the song "Pregomesh" as their entry and finished in sixth place, meaning the country was among the first countries that pre-qualified to the final of the next edition as member of the big 6. Armenia enjoyed two more top 15 finishes in the second and third edition of the contest, with Armenia's entry in the third contest placing within the top 10. In edition four, Armenia placed out of the top 15 for the first time, with Lilit Hovhannisyan reaching the twenty-fourth place.
In edition five, Armenia placed within the top 5 for the first time, finishing in fifth place with Iveta Mukuchyan and her song "Depi nor irakanutyun". Armenia enjoyed great results in the contest until nine, when the country failed to qualify for the first time. A streak of three non-qualifications meant the dismissal of Armenia's head of delegation Patrik Bobarisyan, who was the head of delegation for the country since the first edition. After three editions of non-qualifications, many Armenians called for Armenia to withdraw from the contest as they saw it as a "waste of money". While AMPTV announced their withdrawal from edition twelve, the new head of delegation convinced the broadcaster to try once more to qualify for the final. Asmik Shiroyan was selected as the entrant and Armenia finished within the top 10 for the first time in six editions. Since then, Armenia has qualified for every final and the interest for the Eurovision Song Festival is almost at the level before Armenia's non-qualifications between edition nine and edition eleven.
In the fifteenth edition of the contest, Iveta Mukuchyan returned for the third time on the Eurovision Song Festival stage, after representing her country in the fifth and ninth edition of the contest. The participation of Armenia in this edition was not without controversy, as the contest was being held in Baku, Azerbaijan. Eventually, the Armenian broadcaster and the EBO agreed that Iveta would perform remotely from a TV-studio in Yerevan. She eventually brought Armenia its best result ever, finishing in second place. In the final of the sixteenth edition of the show, Armenia finished in 25th place, the worst ever placement for the country in a final. In the next edition, Armenia failed to qualify for the first time since edition eleven, despite being a fan favorite.
