This visualization presents global population trends from 1800 to 2015 as an area chart, with time on the x-axis and population on the y-axis. The chart uses D3.js v5 with an SVG renderer, employing `d3.area` with a curved basis to fill the region beneath the line, while `d3.scaleTime` and `d3.scaleLinear` handle the axes. Data is loaded from a CSV file using `d3.csv`, and formatting converts values to billions for readability.
