What does the hashtags graph mean?

The graph display the hashtags most frequently seen in the recent tweets about Belgium. Each time two hashtags are used in one tweet, a line is created between them. The following Social Network Analysis (SNA) techniques are applied:

• Community detection (Louvain method): the hashtags frequently found together in tweets are grouped, each community is assigned to a color.
• Force-directed layout (ForceAtlas2): this algorithm lays out the graph so that the hashtags used frequently together get closer to each other, and helps visualizing the community structure of the graph.
