'''Waticania''' participated in the [[Outernatia Song Contest]] 21 times since their debut in the [[Outernatia Song Contest 9|9th Edition]] of the contest. Their best result is 2nd place in both the [[Outernatia Song Contest 21|21st edition]] with Amber Run's ''"I Found"'' and in the [[Outernatia Song Contest 26|26th edition]] with the EDM track ''"Stars Come Out"'' by RUNAGROUND & the Disco Fries. '''Waticania''' has failed to qualify to the final only three times, in the [[Outernatia Song Contest 17|17th edition]], [[Outernatia Song Contest 24|24th edition]] and in the [[Outernatia Song Contest 28|28th edition]]. They hosted the [[Outernatia Song Contest 23|23rd edition]] of the contest due to '''Noxus'''' rejection to host the edition after winning [[Outernatia Song Contest 21|OSC 21]].

Waticania usually chose it's artists and entries internally, with the exceptions of the National Finals for the 16th and 27th editions of the contest - the [[Criplulbury Festival]] and [[Outerfest 01|Outerfest]].

==Withdrawal==

In late November 2016, the head of Waticanian broadcaster [[RTVV]], Cameron Hurley, announced that the Waticanian entry for [[Outernatia Song Contest 30|the 30th edition]] of the contest would be their last. Hurley stated that a return to the contest is unlikely.

"Waticania's participation in the Outernatia Song Contest will come to an end after the 30th edition. The reason for this are financial difficulties, but also lack of interest in the country. We always had such difficulties, but with the recent withdrawals of some of the countries the Waticanian people seemed to like the most, such as [[V]], [[Pen Island]], [[Sunetti]], amongst others, the interest has dropped to an all time low. 

A future return to the contest is possible, but highly unlikely to happen soon. We wish all the other countries the best of luck and we thank them for the amazing 21 editions." - stated Cameron Hurley.

Two weeks later, Mr. Hurley gave out a new statement, saying that the entry for the 30th edition of the contest, Myrath's "Believer" has been withdrawn from the contest in Kimmystan, thus the Waticanian participation in the contest ended with the [[Outernatia Song Contest 29|29th]] edition of the contest.
