Visualization of Global Military Spending
image

Visit the Visualization of Global Military Spending website

In this visualization each country is represented by a circle that shows the amount of money spent on the military (size of circle) and what fraction of the country's earnings that uses (colour). In this graphic the data is presented as ellipses on a cylindrical projection. The countries are not named, and the scaling is slightly different, but once you see africa (central collection of small dots) the layout is clear. The usa dominates the upper/left third of the map.

Looking at flights for our next trip to Oahu. Maybe September 20th to the 30th on the north shore. Our favorite place in the world. :)
