Our team elected to showcase the gt package’s elegant features using South Sudan’s 2008 Census Dataset obtained here. Instead of creating just a table, we opted to create tutorials to help other data science enthusiasts, aspiring data scientists, and data analysts learn to implement the gt package in their data science projects.

South Sudan is the world’s youngest country that gained its independence from Sudan in 2011. According to Wikipedia, South Sudan has a population of 10.98 million; however, the dataset we’re using for this contest shows that South Sudan has 8.26 million.
