This horizontal bar chart displays the population of ten countries in the year 2000, sorted along a linear scale. Built with D3 v7, it uses `d3.scaleLinear` for the x-axis, `d3.scaleBand` for the categorical y-axis, and an SVG `<rect>` for each bar. Axes are rendered with `d3.axisLeft` and `d3.axisBottom`, with data loaded from a local CSV via `d3.csv`.
