Earthquake Bar Plot
This bar plot displays earthquake fatalities across different regions in the 19th century, with the x-axis showing the region and the y-axis recording deaths. The chart reveals that over 700,000 people died in Peru due to earthquakes during this period. The visualization uses d3.v7’s scaleBand and scaleLinear to map the region and death values, rendering rectangles as bars in SVG. Data is loaded asynchronously via d3.csv from a GitHub-hosted earthquakes.csv file, with rotated x-axis labels for readability.
