		Though Eurovision might be relatively unknown to Americans, others will recognize its impact through the songs and singers it unleashes upon the world.
		The contest was broadcast for the first time in Russian and Eastern Bloc countries in 1965, but it wasn't until the fall of the Iron Curtain that Eastern European countries competed in any numbers: Latvia, Romania, Russia, Hungary, and Estonia all entered the 1994 competition.
