This visualization displays the top 12 most populous countries in 2020 using a horizontal bar chart, with each bar representing a country’s population. The bars are rendered as SVG rectangles within a React component, using D3’s `csv` loader to fetch and parse the data, then `scaleBand` and `scaleLinear` to map country names and population values to pixel positions. The chart’s layout includes explicit margins, and the data is sourced from a UN population CSV file hosted on GitHub.
