Religions of Largest 20 Countries
A stacked bar chart displays the estimated 2010 religious composition of the world’s 20 most populous countries, using data from the Pew Research Center’s Global Religious Landscape. Each bar is segmented by religion, with country names on the y-axis and population counts on the x-axis. Users can hover over bars to see tooltips detailing each religion’s population within a country, and hovering over the legend highlights that religion’s segments across all countries. The visualization uses D3.js for SVG rendering, including d3.layout.stack for the stacking logic, d3.svg.axis for chart axes, and d3.legend.color for the interactive legend.
