Similarly to [[RedIndexBlueIndex red and blue]], there's just something about red and green that catches most people's attention. Red and green traffic lights, red and green {{Christmas| Tropes}} colors, redheads with green eyes, [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario and Luigi]], etc. In much of the world, this ''is'' also red and blue, particularly where UsefulNotes/GreenIsBlue.

[[color:red:Red]] (or similar [[color:orange:orange]]) and [[color:green:green]] are popular colors to contrast on national flags, often alongside neutral colors (such as [[TropesInWhite white]] or [[TropesInBlack black]]) or with inbetween color [[TheYellowIndex yellow]].

[[color:yellow:Yellow]] is, in fact, the color created when red and green are combined in the light-based RGB colorspace. But if you try to combine red and green paints, you get [[ThisIndexIsBrown brown]].
