Nation Song Contest 53

Nation Song Contest 53 was the 53rd Nation Song Contest and was a joint hosting between Zaprya and Zechonia after they were 3rd and won, respectively, in the previous contest. This was the first contest in its history that Reym-L-Dneurb did not participate, as they announced their full withdrawal this edition, as did Mysticland. It is also one of the first contests that Saksjaowie has failed to send an entry too, the nation waiting longest for the first win, and the last edition that Qele entered with this name before the name change to Waloria in the next contest. Tohru returned after a long absence since they were prequalified and came last in NSC 31 and Erovia debuted. The contest was eventually won by Greenfroze and their World Cup-inspired entry "Wavin' Flag", their 4th entry resulting in their maiden win, and ended up as one of the lowest winning scores in recent contest history.
