Gryffindor is green and Slytherin is red. Do you wanna start a war or what?

With splitting AND merging, that’s not what this type of chart is used for. This shows me how many purebloods are griffindor, and how many griffindor are alive, but I’m unable to determine how many purebloods are alive.

Also weirdly splits pure blood, half-blood, and one or the other. As if you could be pure blood without being one or the other, or half blood without being one or the other.

Yeah, I agree this chart isn't very useful in image format. The JS-based web version, however, is a lot more useful as you can drag your mouse over every path and the tooltips give you each individual metric.

Well, they missed Arabella Figg.

Guess she was just below the cutoff line of being "Prevalent"

Gotto do that somewhere, since people like Frank Bryce or the muggle prime minister both had a couple minutes of screen time and are not in this graph. How many minutes or how much text makes you prevalent is pretty debatable

I find it interesting that you separated by Type first and then stuck them all back into Male/Female when that one had less choices.

And the colors on your Houses.

Not very beautiful imo

I’m going to say the ghosts are in the dead category

only 1 squib? Surprising Mrs. Figg doesn't make the top 120.

Kinda neat I guess. I would personally put "Pure-blood or half-blood" between half and pure-blood. Also kinda weird that category exists when unknown exists.

Also why is Unknown/No house between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw?

I included this category since there are so many characters that are either pure-blood or half-blood (but definitely nothing else), for example: Peter Pettigrew.

>Why is Unknown/No house between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw?

No reason, I thought it looked better that way.

What do the splits represent and why is it ordered in this way?

Typically, this sort of diagram is used to go from least specific to most specific left to right, with the ones on the right being dependent on the ones on the left.

The slices in this diagram seem to be pretty much completely independent of eachother (they merge), I think this data would be much more easily consumed in a series of pie charts.
