Cultural/Social History Question: Can someone give me a breakdown of how color is viewed in different regions? Why is white the color of purity in Western society? Why does red symbolize joy in China? Any and all responses welcome.

Sorry, we don't allow throughout history questions. These tend to produce threads which are collections of trivia, not the in-depth discussions about a particular topic we're looking for. If you have a specific question about a historical event or period or person, please feel free to re-compose your question and submit it again.

Actually this one is probably better for /r/AskAnthropology though.
