* '''Exaggerated''': Everything in the Empire of Evulz is red and black, from housing to streets to even the food. This policy enforced through state violence and even the threat of death.
* '''Downplayed''': The Empire of Evulz uses red, black, white and maroon as their official colours.
* '''Justified''':
* TheEmperor's favourite colours are red and black.
** In Evulzian culture, red symbolises the blood of the imperial citizen and their sacrifices in the name of the state, while black represents unwavering strength in the face of adversity.
** Red and black are colours that set off danger responses in the human brain, which the empire uses to their advantage.
* '''Inverted''':
** The Empire of Evulz uses primarily blue and white as their main colours.
** The Free Territories of Tropistan is an anarcho-communist society which uses the red and black anarchist flag as its national symbol.
* '''Subverted''': The Empire of Evulz had previously overthrown the Republic of Tropistan, who ''also'' used red and black as their colours.
* '''Double Subverted''': However, the Republic also used ''blue'', which the empire does not use.
* '''Parodied''': [[SuckySchool St. Jeremy's High School]] is an AssimilationAcademy where the teachers rule with an iron fist, and the school's colours are red and black.
* '''Zig Zagged''': Some characters from the empire wear red and black, while others wear different colours.
* '''Averted''': The empire doesn't have a formal colour scheme.
* '''Enforced''': Red and Black were used in many totalitarian regimes in history, and the author uses those colours as shorthand to make the empire look more evil.
* '''Lampshaded''': "Dude, guys in red and black military uniforms are ''never'' good."
* '''Invoked''': ???
* '''Exploited''': [[PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny The People's Democratic Republic of]] {{Ruritania}} fools the heroes into attacking the [[TheGoodKingdom Kingdom of Tropitania]] because of the colouring of their flag and uniforms.
* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': ???
* '''Implied''': While the Empire never makes a formal appearance, their red and black flag is shown and they are referred to as TheEmpire.
* '''Deconstructed''': The Empire of Evulz realises that the colours of their flag have made them appear more evil, so they change them to [[GoldAndWhiteAreDivine gold and white]] to appear more benevolent.
* '''Reconstructed''': However, the people come to view the old flag as a symbol of national pride, and it's changed back with an explanation behind its meaning becoming more widespread.
