Most people familiar with maps associate certain countries with a colour (USA and France blue, Spain yellow, Italy green). This has to do mostly with the flag's most defining colour that sets it apart or a mixed-colour (romania is purple for blue and red, germany is grey because of the old black-white, etc.)

I have not heard of _Paradox,_ but I understand your point: the UK uses red to represent itself a lot (like with the Queen's guards, or old maps of the British Empire), as does Sweden with it's blue (with the flag). In fact, as an American, I thought blue to be quite an American color, probably because of the "new constellation" that is the US flag's top-left corner.
@Infrared01
@Infrared01 4 жыл бұрын
@@Hand-in-Shot_Productions Yeah thats more historical reasoning. Paradox is a gaming company that primarily produces map-based real-time strategy. From their medieval Crusader Kings, to renaissance era Europa Universalis, to Victorian age Victoria, to WW2 era Hearts of Iron. In all these games, 90% of the countries have a standard color. And like I said in my original post, for example, England and the United Kingdom are always a red color. France is always blue, and so on. But the real life historical reasoning is also important. And your theory on blue being an American color, I can get behind.

Cool. I normally use various colours, when it calls for several different ones - just starting from a basic colour at Paint's palette and then clicking "edit colour" to create different shades of pinks, greens etc. for each nations. Two or three colours I normally use to represent competing alliances etc., mostly at the various *imaginary* maps I have always enjoyed creating (such as The Hittite Empire, Bavaria, Slovakia, Spain and Scotland, for example, allied against Russia, Hamburg, York, Burgundy and Poland-Estonia... 😉🙃).

I usually uk-red spain-yellow/orange france/us-blue, prussia/germany-black, russia empire green, uSsr red, modern russia blue, Italy green. If I have two countries with the same color they would be different shades like the uk and ussr I would make the uk a darker red while the soviet that classic Soviet red.if they have puppet State the color would be a slightly lighter color of the original.

Yes... USSR is red, Spain yellow, France blue, UK red, Prussia is grey... I think I think like that because of Paradox games.

I think I first heard the red = loser and blue = winner reasoning for colouring on a video about france losing I think, where france was red, which is weird since france is 99% of the time depicted as blue, the choice makes sense though and it is good to be consistent

How I color countries: Paradox map games. BOOM. We can all agree France is blue and Prussia/Germany is dark grey. Also, white Austria.

Not once was Alternate Future mapping referenced. Some people at 6:50, like me, have come from Alternate Future mapping, where (usually) red is the attack, blue is the defender, yellow is the third-party, and other sides rarely being used.

The Winner-Looser rule doesnt seem to apply to the Vietnam war or Napoleonic wars or the spanish civil war. Red being the worse side seems to be accurate more often. Good vs bad is also the association most people have with these colors. To me it seems like you chose colors without thinking about it, intuitively chose blue for good and red for bad and now you made up this to have an most of the time accurate explanation that doesnt have political bias. But thats just speculation.

I dunno if you would. But would you do a redo of your WW2 in Europe video? Put more detail into that one like showing cities & stuff. See the difference between 2013 to 2020 or 2021

Colour scheme has been hell for mapping... I'm actually surprised you didn't explain it thoroughly before because this is BOUND to happen in the community.

I don't know why people would assume that in the American Civil war one the use of red would be you making a political statement, whereas if you flipped them it would just be wrong, You can't not have a blue USA really, its just weird, and Grey just doesn't stand out that well so its just easier to see a red. Plus the fact that is is just a map and most people wouldn't take the colours as anything beyond face value of just being colours that fit the countries good enough. Though seeing how the people that would be offended by that have been acting they would probably use various details to justify why you might do that and try to push a political statement.

Hey Tigerstar, would you mind sharing your custom map color scheme with me, as well as the map templates you use? I'd like to make my own animated maps in a similar style to yours.
