It is an interesting choice on the part of the author to make the oppressed "redcloaks," and the military "whitecloaks." During the Russian Revolution the Bolsheviks were the Reds, and those who supported the government were the Whites. If the author is presenting the Affinites as the peasants and the ruling class as the Whites... well, I have questions. For this parallel to work it has to be nuanced, and this isn't.
