Vala and Zig, and yet no Rust? I think a key would also be helpful to show us which colors mean what and what the size of the languages circle means.

Agree, I should have included this info on the graphic. The colors are based on the Louvain method for community detection and the node size represents the number of influenced languages within this graph.

Did some more research. Rust actually has a page about its influences and what language feature came from those languages. They don't specifically mention C, but I guess in some way most languages that came after C are influenced by it.

See https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/influences.html
