      Data Source: World Bank Open Data Tools Used: React and Node

      I made this map to check out correlations between various data sources from the World Bank using my website [https://www.demoguessr.com/](https://www.demoguessr.com/?utm_source=gemini)

      I also turned the dataset into a game for fellow country stats nerds 🙂

      Would appreciate any feedback on the visuals 🙂 (currently working on making it smoother / more flexible)

      I am sorry brother and I may get downvoted for this but i have never seen more ugly data than this.

      Cool. Do you have one that links population movement to the urban environment and its impacts on fertility?

      I mean, if you look at the data of existing countries; clearly what works to keep a high birth rate is to live in a society with some combination of low urbanization, large portions of the economy in sustinance farming & the informal sector, and low education and healthcare quality.

      Is the Y axis log based?

      Wich log is it?

      Edit: 1 is above 0 so it can’t be. But it doesn’t seem linear either. 3 seems to be in the middle beatwean 1 and 10.

      lol, the trendline just goes where the red fatso goes.

      Not a criticism of the analysis. Interesting visualisation.

      And the common thread linking these sources is the increasing chance of survival for babies and children thanks to improved health care systems, which people are suddenly able and willing to afford.

      And for countries like those in Africa—which, along with India, have the largest overpopulated populations—this means either significantly improving their economic conditions so that people have fewer children, or isolating themselves and leaving them to their own devices until no one is left alive.

      Otherwise, the world will be overrun …

      Fact …

      This is why I roll my eyes when people say we arent having kids because we can’t afford to.

      I’m of the opinion that, among other factors, both GDP per capita and birth rates are correlated to the amount domination of society by the investor class.

      So I had a world food class in college(not what I was expecting but it was still cool) and we learned that in underdeveloped nations, children are your insurance. More children you have, more likely that they survive to adulthood and can take care of you when your older. Plus they can assist in chores and getting food for the family
