The biggest surprise for me of all on this map is India and Sudan being pro-Iran. I would not have thought that which is very interesting.
However, I think this map is before the fall of Saddam Hussein because Iraq's government is now pro Iran too and not as shown on this map. Another interesting thing is the top half of Afghanistan is for Iran and the southern half of Afghanistan is for Sunnis. So, all the purple colored countries are pro- Sunni Muslim governments to make full sense of this map. So, it is obvious that any blue or turquoise countries might wind up fighting or being upset with any purple colored countries. Israel sides with Saudi Arabia and the Sunni Ruled Countries and against Iran. This is a strategic alliance for Saudi Arabia because Israel has nuclear weapons and the rest of the purple countries (except Pakistan) don't. India also has nuclear weapons. and Iran likely will have them in the next 10 to 15 years. And if Iran has nuclear weapons Saudi Arabia will too as those two are serious enemies both religiously and culturally and are now fighting against each others proxies in Yemen ongoing.
