And finally… Hungary – Ria Ria Hungária! – Ry-Ry-Hungary! 9/10
The Creative Review’s reasoning: “As far as I can tell, the ‘Ria’ doesn’t translate into anything – it’s just a childlike way of turning ‘Hungaria’ into a chant.
This is excellent and shows a good understanding of how slogans work.” None of the countries got 10/10.
Hungary tied with Turkey and Albania with 9/10 each, and Wales got a mention for including dragons. In the end, the Hungarian slogan was announced the absolute winner.
