The way the key works is that it is quantity in two different ways. That is to say, there's more in one way light to dark, and there's more in another way red to green to blue. So light pink has the absolute minimum greater than zero, and the hypothetical darkest blue has the most in both aspects.
One more thing, there are two countries that are actually off the scale but in differing axises. As there is no country a step down from where they sit, it was difficult to work out a method of how to represent them on the map. It would have been a bit misleading no matter what I thought of. The solution I chose was to make it so that the blue is so much +, and the darkest shade is so much +. I should've mentioned that earlier. Sorry.
So one blue country is far beyond the rest, and one of the darkest shade is far beyond the rest. Not going to tell you which country is which though
That would be too easy.
It has nothing to do with legislature.
I can't for the life of me figure out what metheorology is so I can't say if its that or not. It's none of the others though. I stand by my original comment that it is an easy map, so long as you think the right way. There's enough information for it to be guessed and I've tried very hard to hint where to go without giving it away. The tricky part is that I don't think there has been a map quite like this one in Guess the Map before.
There is only one more hint I can think of (albeit cryptic) to give. I'll post the hint tonight if someone hasn't got it.

And per the thread rules, I'm reposting the map on this page. Keep in mind that the Central African Republic I've realised is wrong. It should be striped the lightest green and the third red.

I am assuming he meant meteorology and added an'h' by mistake, so he is talking about the weather.

I meant meteorology, it has nothing to do with Methamphetamine
Your data gradient is extremely confusing if it goes from lightest red to darkest blue as a term of value. I'm looking forward to your next clue.

lol. Unfortunately I CPed that into google and came up with weird stuff. Meteorology maps suck anywayI meant meteorology, it has nothing to do with Methamphetamine

You haven't really gotten it if you think it goes that way, or I just explained it really badly. Ummm...
On an x-axis, it goes red -> green -> blue (+)
On a y-axis, it goes lightest -> the 3 in-between shades -> darkest (+)
Grey means the country has nothing of this.
Where the colours stripe on a country, it means it has different values on the x-axis (with their own quantities).
How was that explanation.

Answer: Consonents in a row in a country name. What? You mean that's hard? Not if you think like a five year-old. All the darker and most striped countries just have really long names, and the blue ones: Egypt, Cyprus, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan just lack vowels in places (none of that 'Y' is a vowel stuff). The Greece hint was referring to its northern neighbour, and the ass-hattish 'Former Yugoslav Republic of' name garbage they inflicted upon it.
Examples at how it worked:
Australia
New Zealand
Democratic Republic of the Congo
Egypt
Anyway, I shut up now.

Many other countries have different names, so that is a hard one to do, since it could be South Korea, or Republic of Korea. And North Korea is even more problematic, which could contain 6 reds and not one lime.
Greece and Colombia, Cyprus and Micronesia? Odd.
Y is vowel in Egypt -- actually it's a vowel in 4 of 5 countries. It's not ambiguous. It's unquestionably a vowel in each. And I'd've never guessed that.

@ Mongoloid Cow,
I never would have guessed it
It may have something to do with the fact that Y is a vowel in our particular alphabets in our parts of the world.
Worth of notice
Yellow: Is it Micronesia? Along with Cyprus.
Green: Colombia and Greece.
Does the colors represent unique traits or are they representations of common phenomenon(s) of varying degree?
