Eurovison 2010 or two maps of Europe popular in Lithuanian internet today :))

Each late spring Europe celebrates famous comedy show called "Eurovision song festival". The first joke is that the festival still has the word SONG in it's name. May be 20 or 30 years ago the festival had the reputation and some value. But in the 1990s the festival began to loose rapidly any musical value (could you remember any star who used the festival as the starting point for the career as was the case for ABBA 35 years ago). 
Yes, we need to be right and to emphasize the fact that this happened when the countries from the eastern part of the continent began to take part in it and the trend particularly was strengthened by the countries from south-eastern part of Europe.
I am not the viewer of the festival but I like one part of it - national voting :)  I am sure that tomorrow Germany will give 12 points to Turkey :))) And this will happen even if the Turkish performer will not sing at all :)))  I guess you know why this will happen :))) Greece and Cyprus will exchange 12 points to each other :)))  Balcan countries will richly reward each other :)) Russia, Ukraine and Belarus will exchange highest grades between each other :))) And you may be surprised that Estonia and Latvia will give 12 points to Russia (the single competitor to grab their votes is Ukraine :))) And I hope you also understand who and why will vote in such a way :) ( I am not so sure for Lithuanian voting). And such voting  will cause angry reaction of part of Latvian and Estonian societies ("our fucking fifth column").

So here I am presenting these two maps which are popular in Lithuanian internet today.

First map shows dominating religion in the country or area  (probably map is clear without explanation):



Second one shows the countries which managed to reach the final. Correlation is very clear :)))
