Shows a legend row with a colored box.
__TOC__

==Usage==
 <nowiki>{{</nowiki>legend|''color''|''label''|outline=''outline color''|border=''css border''<nowiki>}}</nowiki>

''color'' is passed to the [[Cascading Style Sheets|css]] background-color property of the color box. The optional ''outline'' parameter is the color of the outline around the box. If you need to customize the border further, you can use the  ''border'' argument, which overrides the ''outline'' argument and sets the css description (e.g., <code>1px solid #aaa</code>) of the border that will be drawn around the box.

==Examples==
===Use in text===
 <nowiki>{{legend|black|Africa}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{legend|green|Americas}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{legend|blue|Oceania}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{legend|#ffa|Europe|outline=silver}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{legend|#ff2800|Asia}}</nowiki>
