Looking at my globe.
>France is green
>Algeria is historically a French territory.
>Algeria is green
Do the colors of nations on maps and globes mean anything or is that just a coincidence?
I googled, and this:
quora.com
Doesn't really seem relevant to the question I'm asking. It seems to be talking about SPECIALIZED MAPS. My globe is just a globe. I wouldn't call it a "Political Map" or "Physical Map."
Pic not related.

it's just showing different colors so that it stands out from bordering countries
no country have the same colors as a neighboring one
it's coincidence

>What are they based on? What do they mean?
That varies a lot from cunt to cunt, you know. Sometimes it's part of the flag or past flag, sometimes it's some sort of "national color", sometimes it just fits the characteristics of the cunt. But mostly it's habituation.
I think that's why you always see Ireland and Russia as green, and France as blue

What did paradox base the colors on, though?
Russia might also stem from the green uniforms of Russian soldiers from 18th century onwards
>Belgium

The color of frites, what did you expect? What color would you give Belgium?
