Build this chart with AI

The prompt below can be used to build this chart with AI. For best coding results, use the most advanced AI models, like Claude Opus 4.6 and GPT-5.3-Codex. For more info and tips, check out amCharts AI docs.

Create a dual pie chart layout with a primary pie on the left showing six countries (Lithuania, Czechia, Ireland, Germany, Australia, Austria) and a secondary smaller pie on the right that displays sub-category breakdowns. Clicking a primary slice rotates it to the center position with a smooth animation, then populates the secondary pie with that country's sub-data (categories A-G with different values per country). Draw two dashed connector lines linking the selected slice's edges to the secondary chart boundaries, updating dynamically during rotation and window resize. Show tooltips on both charts. Use amCharts 5 library.
