Isn't there a historical reason behind that? Something like dyes were expensive before the Germans (?) started cooking up petroleum...

All I know is that Holland has orange as it's national colour representing the royal family I believe......

Sice Orange is one of the brightest perceived colours, maybe all other Dutch colours feel the need to compensate.....

He, watch your mouth.

Here's the historical information.
The dutch royal family had a princedom in France named Orange after the Oranges (like Orange County).
So the family is named 'Of Orange' this returned into the Jerseys of the national soccer team (and other national teams), so during sporting festivities (like the current European Soccer championships) the main marketing colour is orange.

He watch your mouth (?!)

Orange is one of the brighter perceived colours for the human eye.  It's the reason why it's used for warning stripes, police cars (in a lot of european countries at least) and so on.

Put several colours alongside each other and orange tends to get the attention.

That's all I meant, no more no less.  In order to get noticed in relation to orange, effort is required.....

Can somebody please switch back to the LabTOON channel?

Altenbach Thanks again for these very funny and relaxing breaks!

You'r so right Gabi.

Don't spoil this beautifull thread with this orange stuff.

I don't like soccer and I don't like the world arround me turn into orange.     Oh yes I almost forgot I am Dutch 

Back to the Labtoons, Altenbach I just love it but please keep away from the Orange

Here's a new one from the "field guide" series.

This time we are dealing with self-centered, egoistical constructs.
