When I started the ICS I reasoned that the Inuit and Pataconians, being mostly nomads, wouldn't need secondary colors. However, a tribal confederation would still be possible.
So, here are the secondary colors for the Inuit

Since the Congo Basin section was so small, I figured I'd get both it and the Southern Africa section done today. Also Carcose, would you mind checking over the DRC protectorate and territory shades? I don't think they quite line up with the other protectorate and territory shades.
I think you mixed up the DRC with Congo/Zaire. Try to substitute the main color with this one: #674846; 103, 72, 70
EDIT: I like the way you fixed the Tuareg. My entry was a bit confusing

OK, I cheched the map and you were right. Anyway, try to use the Rose Ebony color as the main DRC
Good Job! I hadn't even tought of a Monarchist Greece, but then it's coherent with the constant change of regime that's kinda the main lead of this scheme. You're top.
I'm sorry, there is one color missing, that's Independent Sicily/Two Sicilies (1816-1860)/Minoan Crete #317873; 49, 120, 115 (Myrtle green).

No Problem. It will give me more time to work on Eastern EuropeCarcosa, I've been feeling a little exhausted recently, and I don't think I'd be able to to get all of the Middle East section done in one go. Would you mind if I split it into separate "Anatolia and the Fertile Crescent" and "Arabian Peninsula" sections?
EDIT: Middle East is a clusterfuck anyway, I got tailspinned myself. I think you had the right idea splitting it, which makes the whole area look less cluttered. I'm amazed of the way you can pick up my work and make it better
