I want to second Light Castle's recommendation:

>I suggest looking at Michel Pastoureau's Blue: A history of a color
>(http://www.pupress.princeton.edu/titles/7116.html).

Once reviled among the civilized (western at least) world, blue is now the most popular color there.

There were major conflicts between people who used blue dye and red dye -- clearly a source of MGF in some part of Glorntha (I propose Trader Prince Maniria).
