Contest - European Division
The Contest is an annual event broken into two major phases. The first
phase runs from late October through early December 1999 as teams from all
over the world compete in Regional Programming Contests. There are some
twenty regions throughout the world. The winners from each region advance
to the Contest Finals, which will be held typically in spring. The 2000
Finals will be held on March 15-19 at the Radisson Twin Tower in Orlando,
Florida (USA).
Note: Teams interested in participating must register with their
Region four weeks prior to the contest date.
The European Division
The main purposes of the European Division are to provide a central point
of reference for participants, to facilitate the communication between the
five European Regions and to provide some divisional services such as this
WWW-Page. We do not have a Divisional Contest, however.

For the 1999-Y2K Contest, Europe has been split into six Regions. The
European countries have been assigned to the Regions as follows:
- Northwestern European Region:
Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Great Britain, Germany (Hessen,
Niedersachsen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Rheinland-Pfalz, Saarland, Schleswig-Holstein),
Ireland, Iceland, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Sweden.
- Southwestern European
Region: France, Italy, Portugal, Spain.
- Mid-Central European Region: Western Austria, Germany (Baden-Württemberg,
Bayern, Berlin, Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Sachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt
and Thüringen), Switzerland
- Central European Region:
Eastern Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovenia, Slovak Republic
- Northeastern European Region:
Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Russia (and other former Soviet Union)
- Southeastern European Region:
Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Macedonia, Moldova, Romania,
Turkey, Ukrainia, Yugoslavia
Contestants have to participate in the contest of their assigned site.
It is, however, exceptionaly possible to participate in an other than the
assigned region. Details on this procedure can be found in the Regional
Participant's Information.
To get further information about your Regional Contest, consult the appropriate
Regional Web-Pages.
If you should have any questions about the European Regions, do not hesitate
to ask them by dropping an e-mail. The Contest Directors will be glad to
answer your questions!
