Religion by Country
This stacked bar chart visualizes the estimated religious composition of the world’s 20 most populous countries in 2010, based on data from the Pew Research Center’s Global Religious Landscape. Each bar is segmented by religion, with colors from D3’s `schemeCategory10`, enabling quick comparison of dominant faiths like Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism across nations. Hovering over the legend highlights the corresponding segments within the bars, while dimming others for focused inspection. The visualization is built using D3’s `scaleOrdinal`, `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, and `stack` APIs, with custom color legend and responsive axes handling.
