The European Broadcasting Area (EBA) is defined by the International Telecommunication Union as such: :''The "European Broadcasting Area" is bounded on the west by the western boundary of Region 1, on the east by the meridian 40° East of Greenwich and on the south by the parallel 30° North so as to include the northern part of Saudi Arabia and that part of those countries bordering the Mediterranean within these limits. In addition, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and those parts of the territories of Iraq, Jordan, Syrian Arab Republic, Turkey and Ukraine lying outside the above limits are included in the European Broadcasting Area.''〔(ITU-R Radio Regulations (2012-2015) ), International Telecommunication Union, available from the Spectrum Management Authority of Jamaica. Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia were added to the EBA at the 2007 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-07).〕 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. ==List of countries within the EBA== The following territories also rest inside the EBA borders, but can not join EBU due their status as non-sovereign states: * , claimed as an autonomous republic of Georgia. * , dependent territory of United Kingdom. * , dependent territory of Portugal * , dependent territory of Spain * , dependent territory of Denmark. * , dependent territory of United Kingdom. * , dependent territory of United Kingdom. * , dependent territory of United Kingdom. * , dependent territory of United Kingdom. * , claimed as an autonomous province of Serbia. * , claimed as part of Iraq * , dependent territory of Portugal * , claimed as part of Azerbaijan. * , claimed as part of Cyprus. * * , claimed as a territorial unit of Moldova. * , claimed as part of Georgia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European Broadcasting Area」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
