AI says (because I had to look it up for an exact explanation) "It's called a 'color revolution' because opposition movements in post-Soviet countries used specific, symbolic colors or flowers (like the orange in Ukraine, roses in Georgia) as unifying symbols for their mass protests, distinguishing themselves and mobilizing supporters to challenge authoritarian leaders, often disputed elections, leading to leadership changes."
