Alright, so as we all know their are various color schemes with many using different colors for a country from another, however this is not necessarily about existing colors, but about a specific situation, that is about the color of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
As is stands on maps the PLC is given the Poland color, however this does'nt make alot of sense as it was neither the successor to a single country (Poland), nor was it Poland in everything but name (Lithuania was the larger, more powerful partner); their is also the issue the a separate PLC color is needed for part of the period before it came into being when Poland and Lithuania were both separate states but were in a proto-supranational Union for awhile.
