On today's guess the obscure map (Aviation related)

I don't know what it is but Spain can moan about it until they're blue in the face.

The answer is: Operators of the C-130 aircraft. (Blue for current, green for former)

The C-130 for reference like the B-52 has also been going since the 50s. Another remarkable plane. Everyone knows these buggers, they're the ones that fly low over your house and make everything shake

I wasn't suggesting you should have done. I was just wondering if anyone knew what the joke really was and how it started

AIUI the joke first started with somebody noticing that American media outlets and prominent twitterers sometimes say some variant of 'a lot of people don't realise quite how big Texas is'. Definitely the first dozen or so variants of it that I saw were all about Texas.

I appear to be in a spot of danger.   Interestingly, there's none indicated in northwestern Colorado, where Dinosaur f***ing National Monument is located.

Agreed.  But the map is where they are “ from” rather than their citizenship.  If it were, there are other arguments.  Marie Currie was a French Citizen. Tesla was an American Citizen.   The one thing when can all agree on is that David Suchet is 100% Belgian.  😂
