Kross-European Song Kontest of 1933

This is the 12th edition of the Kross-European Song Kontest.

Organisation
The 1933 contest was confirmed only in March of 1933, because of Germany's new government and the threat of a military conflict between them and the host country, France.

Germany confirmed their participation in early March, which allowed for a safe contest being held.

Participants
After the ending of the 1932 contest, Hungary announced it's withdrawal. Germany announced their comeback to the contest, as well as Italy. In December of 1932, France confirmed their participation, followed by  Netherlands and  Belgium doing the same. Spain announced it's participation in January of 1933, followed by Ireland in late January of the same year.

The end of January brought Nazi Germany, which, despite the often questions, didn't confirm their participation until March 1933, which opened the confirming period again.

Immediately after that, United Kingdom and  Portugal confirmed participation. A few days after that,  Yugoslavia and  Sweden both announced their return.

There were rumors of the USSR entering the contest, but it was disproved by Joseph Stalin himself. The Soviet delegation said they may debut soon though.
