Map of the United Kingdom by region, one number per region

About this template

Data: one row per region — the nine English regions plus Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland (the ITL1 statistical regions) — with its code (TLC to TLN) or its name ("North East", "London", "Scotland"), and a number. Orkney and Shetland are drawn east of the mainland, at their own scale. Same design as the nation, local authority and constituency maps.

A choropleth map of the states, provinces or regions of UK (ISO 3166-2 codes), each region filled by one number from your data (the "population" column).

A sequential colour scale from pale blue for the smallest values to deep navy blue for the largest; pinned to 1000000 to 10000000, so values beyond the ends take the end colour and the colour bar says ≤ and ≥; a gradient colour bar below the map, with its labels underneath; values formatted in compact form (1.2k, 3.4M), 1 decimal; on a white canvas (#ffffff) with near-black text — a light theme; 1-unit hairline outlines between regions.

The title and description are left-aligned above the chart. Font: Inter (the default); a source line with a link sits at the bottom, with the chartlink badge in the corner.

Data: 2 columns — region (string, "Region (ITL1 code or name)"), population (number, "Population, mid-2024 estimate") — and 12 rows in the example "Population of the UK's twelve regions, 2024". Regions are named by ISO 3166-2 region codes or region names; a region with no row stays unfilled in grey, and an unknown code fails loudly with the nearest matches. Your data keeps the same column ids and every other setting comes from the template; an agent can change any of them.
