This interactive world map visualizes suicide rates by country using World Health Organization data from 1979 to 2016. A dropdown menu lets users select a specific year or view the most recent available numbers, with each country represented as an SVG circle sized by its suicide count. The visualization uses React for state management and UI controls, while d3.geoNaturalEarth1 and d3.geoPath render the geographic features from World Atlas TopoJSON data. Country positions are plotted using latitude and longitude coordinates, with d3.scaleSqrt scaling circle radii proportionally to the displayed values.
