Made and posted a different version of this yesterday, after looking at I thought it still wasn't as clear what a degree is as it should be so I made this revision.
A place to share and discuss visual representations of data: Graphs, charts, maps, etc.
DataIsBeautiful is for visualizations that effectively convey information. Aesthetics are an important part of information visualization, but pretty pictures are not the sole aim of this subreddit.

Originally r/DataisBeautiful
The main thing I did to improve this was to align your bloodline vertically, this helps to show that degree is actually consistent. The other thing that makes these confusing is your siblings and their descendants - they are distinctly different from aunts and uncles as they have nothing to do with degrees of your cousins. For that reason I show that line separately rather than under aunts/uncles.
Also, I don't care about this AT ALL so why I've spent this much time on this I have no idea.... I just happened to come across an 'explaination' that didn't explain anything and thought I could do better.
I never understood or cared about how “removed” works, but now I know! Thanks!
You did it!
