Probably others down in the balkans, too, so maybe some Civ V designer got confused what with Austro-Hungary being down there or something...</p><p>Still, yeah, White Eagle... I would think Poland before Serbia there, so it is a bit of a weird choice. I think they were running out of colours that suited Austria (Yellow/Black was already taken by Russia, White/Black by Germany), so they probably just gave Austria Red/White because that's their colours now. And then when they added Poland later they were caught out because they needed almost the same colours.</p> SirFitzMitchellFitzRoy /users/553993 tag:danbooru.me,2005:Comment/1398689 2015-05-19T17:57:30-04:00 2015-05-19T17:57:30-04:00 <img src="/cdn_image/preview/08/3b/083be5600efd5ed7bc33f7b992e16b1a.jpg"/> <p>Nice touch with swapping colours.
