Bangladesh: the people, then their state, layer by layer

Start with a question.

The people

174,619,056 dots

One for each person the population model places on this land: brighter where the model places more people, darker where it renders fewer. The state is theirs. What follows is that state as the twin holds it: its bodies and their records, the country layer by layer, and where the record ends.

A dot is a density estimate drawn inside a 100 m cell. It is not a person's location.

    Where the record ends.

    This view lists each source table the twin holds, in its register or among the data it has collected, and marks layers with no listed holding; each count keeps its own unit, so these counts are not a total of the state.
