Ukraine's Orange and Blue
There are a number of telling maps up at various sites showing the electoral split in the Ukraine. My favorite is here. The accompanying commentary and links are also worth the time. This split was predicted years ago by, among others, Samuel Huntington in "The Clash of Civilizations." He touched on it briefly in the magazine article, but expanded and expounded it in the book version, which, as I recall, has its own version of today's orange and blue map along with ruminations about civil war.
