the data
For my final data visualization project, I chose to work with a dataset involving extinct languages across the world. I decided to work with this dataset because I was interested in the relation of languages to geography, which is why I chose to display it on a map.

the visualization
In my visualization, the data is represented as dots of different sizes and colors. The size relates to the number of speakers (the bigger the more speakers) and the color relates to the vulnerability of the language (green in vulnerable, red is extinct).
To interact with the visualization, try hovering over a bubble to view its data.

One interesting thing I noticed during this project is that areas with the most extinct languages (red dots) are mostly concentrated in a few areas. Something I still wonder about is why they disappeared, and how quickly they disappeared.

The most challenging moment of this project was making all the variables and getting strings to color-code and size-code the bubbles.
If I had more time, I would like to add a filter to my code so different categories can be viewed.
My proudest moment during this project was when I got all the bubbles to load. It was a triumphant moment after trying to fix the bugs in my code.
