an image of Europe, with Spain highlighted in red, France in orange, Germany in yellow, Poland in green, Ukraine in blue, the Black Sea in indigo, and Turkey in violet

    $\begingroup$ @matt_rule hey, nothing wrong with an easy puzzle every once in a while. I also happen to be pretty geographically oriented so it probably jumped out at me quicker than the average person $\endgroup$

Let's look at this another way...

The given image, upside down
