Guess the Map VII: Bhutan vs. Peru

[mitsho]

Adoption or last change of constitution?

Nah, doesn't look like it. But it does from the comments looks like it does have something to do with head-of-state/president. It's probably not political affiliation of the president, not it's length of rule, month of being elected/taking the job?

 

[JohannaK]

Perhaps it is age of the head-of-state of head-of-government?

Perhaps it is age of the head-of-state of head-of-government?

Heads of State looks pretty likely. Although, I thought Bhutan's King is pretty young. Much closer to Kim than Obama.

 

[nocho]

Perhaps it is age of the head-of-state of head-of-government?

Looks probable! Blue 80+, green 70+ etc.

 

[Optical]

Well, that rules out heads of government. Could well be heads of state.

 

[Arakhor]

Heads of state would certainly fit for all the same-coloured countries of the Commonwealth. Is the Italian president in his 80s as well?

 

[JohannaK]

At least 70s.

 

[nocho]

Napolitano is closer to 90 than to 80 iirc...

 

[JohannaK]

Then he is indeed in his 80s, aye.

 

[Peck of Arabia]

Perhaps it is age of the head-of-state of head-of-government?

Bingo! It's the respective ages of all currently serving Heads-of-State

Blue 80+
Green 70-79
Yellow 60-69
Red 50-59
Orange - 40-49
Dark Red 30-39
Brown - Up to 29 (Or, Kim Jong-Un)


The floor's all yours, JoanK

Wow! I could have studied that map for a year and never come up with that.

 

[Goodfella]

Uggh. I was looking at the similarities between Bhutan and Madagascar and I didn't realize that both had young leaders.

 

[Borachio]

At one stage Madagascar had a cabinet of 16 yr olds. IIRC.

 

[JohannaK]

I remember Peck said that age was the right line of thinking, and it looked like it had to do with head-of-states and the like, so I just put two and two together.

If I don't post a map in 24h, its open ground. Actually, if somebody already has a map ready, please post. I'm more of guessing than of posting maps.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Well if you don't mind JoanK....

So I was going to make a map of my own, but I found this handy premade one online. It isn't formatted exactly as I like, but it'll do.

Treat all of the colors the same; if a country has a color, then it has done this. If it is gey, it has not.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

Crap, if that quality is a problem, let me know and I'll redo it.

Muhahaha, you guys will never get this one.

dark green - superpowers
orange - former colonial powers
light green - parts of former empires
blue - alcoholics
purple - empires from a certain time frame

Ahhh, wait a second. I think each colour is supposed to represent a different time period? In this order maybe?

purple
blue
light green
dark green

Some things don't seem to add up, but.. maybe they do.

It could also have something to do with the UN. So those are my 3 answers

The colors do represent time periods, so you were right about that. Everything else is wrong though.

Yup.

I was originally going to make a map with a color for men in space, a color for women in space and a mix for countries that have done both. That would've been harder to guess, I think, but the premade one was too tempting.

Damn it. Did you google search the image or am I that bad?
