This visualization uses a contour map to show population density across the world, based on the populations of large cities. It overlays political borders and labels for major cities, and supports panning and zooming. The implementation leverages `d3.geoNaturalEarth1` projection, `d3.geoPath`, and `d3.contourDensity` to generate density contours, which are colored using a custom scale combining CubeHelix and Reds. City labels are placed without overlap using the RBush spatial index, and the map is rendered with SVG and the `d3.select` API.
