This is a simulation.
- The d3 javascript library by Michael Bostock
- Interface design based on that used in my collaboration with Bill Snebold on the US Birth/Death Visualization
- World geometry data from this 50m data file used in this example by Michael Bostock
- Population data primarily from the CIA Factbook population data, with some data from wikipedia's list of populations
- Birth rate data primarily from the CIA Factbook birth rates with some data from wikipedia's list of birth rates. This birth rate is the annual average number of births per year per 1,000 persons in the population at midyear (this is also called the crude birth rate).
- Death rate data primarily from the CIA Factbook death rates with some data from wikipedia's list of death rates This death rate is the annual average number of deaths per year per 1,000 persons in the population at midyear (this is also called the crude death rate).
- Data for US counties' latitude/longitude from this data file by Michael Bostock
- Data for "representative" latitude and longitude point of each country from Socrata OpenData
- The 2010 population data for "Places" from US Census, which contains census information for about 30,000 "places" (cities, towns, census designated places, etc.) in the US
- Flag images from www.icondrawer.com
- Country codes and names from Luke Duncalfe's ISO-3166 Country Lists with UN Regional Codes
- World city names, populations, and latitude/longitude from Josh Smith's worldwide-city-database on github, which itself is based on the Maxmind WorldCities Database
- The mouseover tooltip is an extension of that used in this d3 example by iweczek
- The religion composition for each country is primarily from the Pew Forum, with some values from Wikipedia and the CIA Factbook; note that these breakdowns are not city-specific within countries.
