This choropleth map of India visualizes the country’s first-level administrative divisions, with each state or union territory filled by a categorical color and labeled with its name. The visualization uses D3 v5 to load geographic data from an external JSON file, projecting the geometries with `geoMercator` and rendering them as SVG paths via `geoPath`. State names are placed at path centroids using the projection’s centroid calculation. The map relies on the `topojson` library to convert the GeoJSON features into renderable shapes, with a hover effect that highlights individual states in white.
