Show HN: Explore how nations talk about each other in UN speeches
How it works: Select a country on the globe to explore diplomatic relationships and see who's saying what about whom in the 2024 UN General Assembly Speeches.

How it's made: The project relies heavily on GenAI for several tasks:

- Reading speech documents in multiple languages

- Identifying both direct and indirect mentions of other countries

- Extracting and translating relevant quotations that demonstrate positive or negative sentiment

- Mapping mentions to correct ISO country codes

- Visualization is rendered using d3.js

This is still a work in progress with room for expansion. While currently focused on 2024 speeches, future plans include:

- Analyzing mentions across different years to reveal evolving diplomatic patterns

- Mapping speeches to UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to show which nations prioritize specific global challenges

Looking forward to your feedback on this initial version!
