Gapminder is a good topic covering world development, data analytics with good insights.

I spent a Saturday afternoon to recreate a similar interactive chart with data from world bank , using fsharp and Plotly.Net gdp per capita vs. life expectancy over years, sized in populatio and colored by region.

I struggled a bit on the animation part, so just left the result as a manual slider. It was a fun exercise for me to figure out how slider works by setting the visibility mask, and formating different aspects of the chart.
