Also, maybe you should consider giving Malaysia a colour...
I tought I did... let me re-read my working draft....

EDIT: I did. it's Lychee, #DC5349; 220. 83, 73. I probably forgot to copy it into the second draft. Just let me calculate the other two levels, then we can adjust the missing color.

EDIT2: Protectorate: #EEA9A4; 238, 169, 164 - Territory: #6E2A25; 110, 42, 37

Do you think Brunei also needs a color? I don't think Singapore does, though it may in a gone way far Cyberpunk scenario

I reckon a Singapore colour could also double for an ethnic Chinese state outside China. Brunei could double as an independent Borneo.

Good thinking. I think the missing colors can be added later though, for now I'd rather concentrate on calculating the levels for the existing ones.
Do you agree, or would it be easier for you to add the new colors at once?
