This bar chart displays the population of ten countries, using horizontal bars scaled linearly from zero to the maximum value. Built with D3 v5, the visualization loads data from a CSV file, converts the population strings to numeric values, and renders SVG rectangles. The chart employs `scaleLinear` and `scaleBand` for positioning, with axes generated via `axisLeft` and `axisBottom`. Bars are styled with a steelblue fill, and the layout includes defined margins for clear presentation.
