Our class was provided with an Excel spreadsheet called “Population-Estimates-by-Country-1950-2015-United-Nations” to use for our data and introduction to using Tableau.

I made Year the x-axis value and Population the y-axis value to observe growth over time. Then I assigned each region a different color to see the different growth rates. Finally, I reduced the time span to 20 years, showing growth by region between 1985 and 2015.
