Continuously Variable Proportional Circle Map

A continuously variable proportional circle map displays data in circles. The circles size is indicated by how large or small the data is that is being measured. The circles are placed in the area that is being represented in the data.  The continuously variable proportional map is very similar to the range graded proportional map except for the data is only represented by the size of the circle, there are no numbers given. This map shows the number of people killed in road accidents in Europe in 2000. Here you can see that the countries that are more popular and urban have a larger number of accidents.
