Sized Points on a Map
A world map displays cities with populations over 50,000 as semi-transparent teal circles, sized proportionally using a square-root scale. The visualization layers Natural Earth landmasses, graticules, and a sphere outline, rendered via `d3.geoPath` with a `geoNaturalEarth1` projection. City coordinates and population data come from a CSV fetched using `d3.csv`, while country boundaries use TopoJSON converted with the `feature` API. React manages component state, with the SVG marks generated through the `Marks` component, combining `d3.scaleSqrt` for radius scaling and `d3.max` for domain calculation.
