If you have 18 or fewer countries you can add this background color expression to each expression:

=color(FieldIndex('Country', Country))

If you have more than 18 Country values you have to tweak the expression a bit like this:

=color(

  RangeMax(

  Mod(FieldIndex('Country', Country),18)

  ,1)

)

for current month   sum({$<MonthYear={"=$(=max(MonthYear))"}>}Value )

for previous month  sum({$<MonthYear={"$(=date(AddMonths(max(MonthYear),-1),'YYYYMM'))"}>}Value )

for pre previous month  sum({$<MonthYear={"$(=date(AddMonths(max(MonthYear),-2),'YYYYMM'))"}>}Value )

Top two values in current month comparing the same values with previous month

that is the thread where my application is and its name is 67.qvw

below iss the chart i japan is blue in colour in 2016 06 then it should be blue in colour in the previous month as well
