How to change the color of a country in Inkscape

• Open the file in Inkscape.
• Make sure that the arrow pointer is selected.
• Click on a country. This will select it.
• Press the Shift+ctrl+F keys
• This pops up a small window.
• Make sure the Fill tab is selected.
• At the right edge, about 3/4 of the way down there is a field labeled RGBA
• This field contains eight letter/numbers which can be copied or pasted.
• The window stays open when another country is selected. (Usually behind the main Inkscape window.)

A couple more useful things -

• I find the "wheel" tab easiest to use if I want to pick an entirely new color.
• RGBA stands for Red, Green, Blue, Alpha. Alpha is the opacity. The first six letter/numbers, RGB can be used in wikiapedia and elsewhere (i.e. Photoshop) to color text, and other items.
