Active FBA members

  •  Atlandia: Despite originally confirming their intention to participate, the Atlandian broadcaster failed to send an entry for confirmation and was disqualified.
  •  Moowaus: Moowaus failed to officially confirm or withdraw for the 20th edition, and thus was not on the final list of participants.
  •  Pashlanahuy: The Pashlanahuy broadcaster confirmed the country would temporarily withdraw for the 20th edition, with a return in the 21st edition likely.
  •  Shinkoyu: The Shinkoyuese broadcaster announced the country's permanent withdrawal from the contest, citing poor results and a lack of interest from the public.
