This bar chart visualizes the 2018 population of the top 11 countries, with each bar’s length proportional to population size. The chart uses D3 v5’s `scaleLinear` for the x-axis and `scaleBand` for the y-axis, rendering SVG rectangles scaled by population values. Data is loaded from a local CSV file, and population values are multiplied by 1000 to reflect the original source from worldpopulationreview.com. The chart is positioned using a margin transform, though only a subset of the layout is visibly styled.
