DHYODATA

Where they’re from

Hometowns as the leagues bill them: SCL's roster, and World Elite Sumo's announcements for its wrestlers (the blue dots). A wrestler billed with a country and no town, or a town outside that country, sits on a ring in the middle of the country. Dots ease apart where towns crowd and close on their true positions as you zoom in. Coordinates from OpenStreetMap, outlines from Natural Earth.
