That was a really fun one. Probably the first time I figured out all the categories before making a single guess.

Saw the theme right away, it's a fun one.
Unfortunately I'm just not very familiar with several expressions and some of the words fit in multiple categories.

Purple was the most apparent to me, like I saw yellow first, but missed a word. Then tried the other group I saw, which was purple. Green kind of popped out after guessing purple. And blue and yellow were complete guesses, I knew what the groups were supposed to be, but didn't know all of the expressions.

🟨🟦

Nations didn't fit anywhere.
Rail and rock are completely foreign (pun intended).

Saw the theme pretty early, nice one too, but was having trouble sorting them at first. Went to “3rd” to actually get started.

Yellow and purple jumped out at me. I had to caffeinate my grey matter with a cup of coffee before seeing green and blue.

The hardest part for me was trying to decide which category would be purple, for the reverse rainbow.
