An orthographic globe rotates between countries, highlighting each one in red while its name appears below. The visualization cycles through all nations alphabetically, pausing briefly on each before spinning to the next. It uses D3 v3’s `d3.geo.orthographic` projection and `d3.geo.path` with a Canvas context to draw land, borders, and the highlighted country. TopoJSON provides the world geometry, and a TSV file supplies country names. Animation is driven by `d3.transition` with a custom `tween` that interpolates the projection’s rotation.
