Note:
Click the “By language” or “By geography” button to view the desired data.
Chart explanation:
The tree map displays hierarchical data that uses nested rectangles to visually represent geographies
or languages. Each rectangle is proportional to the data it represents within a population.
The visualization shows the proportion of the population by their mother tongue across multiple
geographies.
Each box has a hover functionality that displays the associated language or geography. The colours in
the tree map do not have any significance, they are strictly for visual purposes.
