"Different cultures, different customs, or so the saying goes. The saying also apparently applies to rifle preferences for the world’s militaries, as the following map illustrates.
According to Gizmodo the map seems to group weapons that are of a similar family together by color. Obviously, there are many, many more types of rifles than the ones shown on the map, but as Gizmodo notes, the “map gives a general gist of each military’s standardization.” "

That map is surprisingly interesting, the trusty AK series is still going strong.
