I really don't understand, and don't have a thought at all what to guess. I'm curious to find out the answer, but I think I'll probably need to wait until someone else gets it.
Would this map get a lot clearer if red was divided into the 2 parts it represents?
Just please don't let this be a "country names in a language" thingWe once had something like that, with Belgium.
Red is "either / or" of extreme ends of the scale.
Does that mean that grey is in the middle of that scale ?
looked up and saw ghana's name is the same in those two languagesIt's a national trait.
Example: If this map were in Spanish, Argentina would be grey, and Ghana red.
I seriously doubt it is literally "extreme". It is only extreme relative to a group, eg group of letters.
I hate natural languages.
Eg if this was letters in the country name, gray would just mean none of the chosen (arbitrarily) letters are there.

Sorry guys, I think my concept for this map might have been too abstract. :/
There are two parts. The first has to do with the names of these countries in English. The second part has to do with the absolute value of something in all countries (so yes, grey has a value in between the extreme ends that I mapped).
There is something unique about the blue countries that lets them be both extremes.
ok
I started with thinking on names
BTW surprising how frequent the "a" is for country names.
But Yemen killed it
the Y looked good, but to get a second hit:
the n not because of canada, the m not because of so many red dots without the "m", the "e" not because of the Netherlands.
Nr of syllables no solution as well.
But how does then becomes a language important ?
The word for the inhabitants ?
