Suppose we have a $n$-gon. Some $n-3$ diagonals are coloured black and some other $n-3$ diagonals are coloured red (a side is not a diagonal), so that no two diagonals of the same colour can intersect strictly inside the polygon, although they can share a vertex. Find the maximum number of intersection points between diagonals coloured differently strictly inside the polygon, in terms of $n$.

Let $n\ge 3$ be an integer. An [i]inner diagonal[/i] of a [i]simple $n$-gon[/i] is a diagonal that is contained in the $n$-gon. Denote by $D(P)$ the number of all inner diagonals of a simple $n$-gon $P$ and by $D(n)$ the least possible value of $D(Q)$, where $Q$ is a simple $n$-gon. Prove that no two inner diagonals of $P$ intersect (except possibly at a common endpoint) if and only if $D(P)=D(n)$.
[i]Remark:[/i] A simple $n$-gon is a non-self-intersecting polygon with $n$ vertices. A polygon is not necessarily convex.

For a natural number $n \ge 3$, we draw $n - 3$ internal diagonals in a non self-intersecting, but not necessarily convex, n-gon, cutting the $n$-gon into $n - 2$ triangles.
