This area chart depicts global population trends over time, using a smooth, curved line to fill the space beneath the data series. Built with D3 v5, the visualization encodes the year on a time-scaled x-axis and population on a linear y-axis, with the area filled in orange. The chart draws from a CSV dataset of world population by year, loaded via D3's `csv` function. The axes are rendered with `scaleTime`, `scaleLinear`, `axisLeft`, and `axisBottom`, while the area path is generated using the `area` generator with `curveBasis`. The visualization labels its axes "Year" and "Population" and omits grid lines for clarity.
