This circular timeline visualization maps political and military events in the Middle East from 1953 to 2025 onto a ring, with event nodes positioned by date using `d3.scaleTime` and color-coded by category. The view opens with static SVG rendering of the timeline axis, year markers, and event circles, and users can click events to view details or filter by category. Built with D3.js v7, the visualization uses an interactive SVG layout where events are drawn as circles around a circular axis, with tooltips and a details panel that populates on selection.
