Blue: net, ca, us (Canada, US and network providers)
Green: com, org (commercial and non-profit)
Red: mil, gov, edu (Government and Education)
Yellow: jp, cn, tw, au (Southeast Asia)
Purple: de, uk, it, pl, fr (Europe)
Cyan: br, kr, nl (brazil, south korea and the nederlands [i have no idea])
White: (no idea)
