}}Royal blue is both a bright shade and a dark shade of azure blue. It is said to have been created by millers in Rode, Somerset, a consortium of which won a competition to make a dress for Queen Charlotte, consort of King George III.[7]{{Clear}}

Brightness

The Oxford English Dictionary defines "royal blue" as "a deep vivid blue",[8] while the Cambridge English Dictionary defined it as "a strong, bright blue colour",[9] and Collins defines it as "a deep blue colour".[10] US dictionaries give it as further towards purple, e.g. "a deep, vivid reddish or purplish blue" (Webster’s New World College Dictionary)[11] or "a vivid purplish blue" (Merriam-Webster).[12]

By the 1950s, many people{{Who|date=October 2016}} began to think of royal blue as a brighter color, and it is this brighter color that was chosen as the web color "royal blue" (the web colors when they were formulated in 1987 were originally known as the X11 colors). The World Wide Web Consortium designated the keyword "royalblue" to be this much brighter color, rather than the traditional darker version of royal blue.

//Uniform">Uniforms
  • When, in 2008, the United States Transportation Security Administration changed the color of airport screener uniforms from white to royal blue, they found that it made the work of the airport screeners easier because airline passengers became more compliant, apparently because by wearing blue, the airport screeners came to be perceived more as authority figures.[19]
