European Broadcasting Area

The European Broadcasting Area (EBA) is defined by the International Telecommunication Union as such:

The EBA includes territory outside Europe, and excludes some territory that is part of the European continent. For example, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia were defined as outside the EBA borders until 2007. After EBA was expanded by the 2007 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-07) to include those three countries, the only sovereign undisputed territory belonging to the European continent while remaining outside the EBA borders, is 4% of Kazakhstan. While Kazakhstan is excluded from EBA, it is still eligible to apply for membership of the Council of Europe.

The boundaries of the European Broadcasting Area have their origin in the regions served and linked by telegraphy cables in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The European Broadcasting Area plays a part in the definition of eligibility for active membership in the European Broadcasting Union and thus participation in the Eurovision Song Contest. As of right now, the European Broadcasting Union has 73 members from 56 countries, 35 associates from 21 countries, and 7 approved participants.

The following territories also rest inside the EBA borders, but can not join EBU due their status as non-sovereign states:
