You may notices we use a few different color charts throughout our blog. The different colors mark different reigns.
We rotate through the colors, pink, green, and blue. The reigns across Europe don't exactly line up. But we wanted to distinguish between each reign & the older and new monarchs.
We started with pink for all monarchs as of Nov 2012. We will then switch to green, blue, then pink again for each subsequent monarch. And will do the same for monarchs that came before (on the rare event we record something that far back).
