In 2011 when Azerbaijan🇦🇿 won 43 countries participated. This is the highest number ever competing in one year and therefore has an Impact on the percentage. Azerbaijan recieved not that many votes like other winners and thats why they are only sixth in this Ranking. Bulgaria 2017 for example was 2nd in both jury and televoting with a huge amount of points (42 countries participated that year) and is therefore higher in this ranking. I hope I could help:) Greetings from Germany🇩🇪❤
