The following steps will serve as a guideline to create a choropleth using available data on an internet page:

Create a new notebook using the Google Colab environment as described in section 1.2: Designing the solution.

To build a map, let's create a code that uses a folium library to create a map object and display it:

import folium

map = folium.Map(location=[30,10], zoom_start=3, tiles = 'cartodbpositron')

map

This command produces the following figure:

First, create a variable political_countries_url that will store data from a site:

http://geojson.xyz/naturalearth-3.3.0/ne_50m_admin_0_countries.geojson

Then employ folium package to add a political layer to the original map:

import folium

political_countries_url = (

    "http://geojson.xyz/naturalearth-3.3.0/ne_50m_admin_0_countries.geojson"

)

# Creating a political layer with the country's borders

political_layer = folium.GeoJson(political_countries_url)

# Adding the political layer to the map

political_layer.add_to(map)

map

This command produces the following figure:
