Similar to when Great Britain had an Empire marked of with 'possessions', shown in pink, (it could have been red at one time but our school had a very old map and I think the ink had faded), the Americans show their kids a map marked off in black with the places they have already gained a monopoly on oil producing countries and in grey, (gray for our colonial cousins), of countries pending.
