SPOILER ALERT: There are significant reveals of book information in order to support the ubunifu of these maps. Please do not continue if wewe do not wish to have this information revealed to you.

General Map Information
There are two maps in this article. The first was a rough draft for quickly placing the general location of the districts during research. The sekunde map is zaidi detailed and provides boundaries for each of the districts. The map is large and the boundary lines in it are small so wewe may have to zoom in to see them.

Analysis - General
The location of the districts is based on three things:
1. Terrain analysis. Both maps assume a 100m rise in ocean/sea levels. They are both overlayed with a map of current Amtrak train routes. The detailed map includes elevation terrain features and major waterways which would provide a natural boundary to a district.
2. Historical data of commerce within the United States.
3. Information from the books. Citations from the vitabu will follow a (b:c) format where b=book and c=chapter.

District Placement

Capitol - Ringed kwa 13 districts (1:1), Rockies (1:3), accessible through tunnels only from the east districts (1:4), its own nuke arsenal on its outskirts (3:2, 3:14). It can be interpreted based on this data that there are western districts. Salt Lake City is a reasonable location as it seems to fit nicely with the book details and the fact that a major train route goes through it.

District 1 - Luxury Items (1:5), machine that turns graphite into diamonds (1:6), well-fed, Careers (1:7), lap-dogs (1:12). Luxury items can be made most anywhere and the district need not be big. Situating it right to the west of the Capitol would allow for it to receive the protection of the Capitol and ensure speedy delivery of its products. The fact that it is a lap-dog district would suggest that it is one of the Western Districts that enjoy a close relationship with the Capitol.

District 2 - Stone Quarries, Weapons Manufacture, Peacekeeper Recruitment and Training (3:6), well-fed, Careers (1:7), lap-dogs (1:12). A large district comprised of many vilages spread across the mountains (3:14). "The Nut" fortress that is the major Capitol military stronghold (3:14). District 2 seems to be the gatekeeper to the Capitol and therefore should surround it at least from the east.

District 3 - Factories: televisions, automobiles, explosives (1:16), electronic gadgets (2:12). First to fall under rebel control along with 11 during sekunde uprising. Keeping with the lower numbered districts being to the west and the heavy electronics nature of the district the southern California area seemed a good choice.

District 4 - Seafood (2:12), fishing (2:13), well-fed, Careers (1:7), lap-dogs (1:12), mkate with seaweed (1:7), sekunde to revolt (2:12). In an interview with Suzanne Collins, she states that District 4 is on the Pacific. This in conjunction with the flooding of northern California make it an ideal location. This continues the trend for low numbered, Capitol-friendly districts to be out west.

District 5 - Power Generation (official movie promotion webpage), nuclear, solar, electric (from Tribute Guide). The Capitol would most likely have its own limited power supply to prevent its fall due to a loss of District 5. Still it would want close protection from District 2. With this in mind District 5 would most likely provide power for the other Districts, the telephone and televisheni transmission systems, and probably zaidi importantly, the games arenas based on their heavy terraforming and force field usage. Since the old arenas are tourist attractions for Capitol citizens it would seem reasonable that they would be close and built on terrain of little value for anything else, namely desert. It reliance on solar and wind and nuclear would make Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma an ideal location.

District 6 - Transportation, namely hovercraft and trains (Tribute Guide). Based on the hub of train travel which is the primary means of inter-district travel. The former Chicago region is the modern siku train hub and considering that train routes are a major engineering effort it would seem to make sense to keep them near about where they were in the past. This could also represent the fuel stop that the train taking Katniss and Peeta to the 74th Hunger Games occurred.

District 7 - Lumber and paper (2:15), broken dam during sekunde revolution (3:9). Upper Michigan and Wisconsin are a lumber region. This district must also lie inayofuata to 10 and on the way to the Capitol from District 12, with an arrival during night time (1:4). No other historical lumber region would fit.

District 8 - Textiles (2:6), first to revolt in sekunde revolution (2:6). The path between 6 and 8 must be within reasonable distance from 12 as the refugees from 8 that Katniss met fled on foot from a train fuel stop between the two (2:10). This could be the same fuel stop the train that took Katniss and Peeta to the 74th Hunger Games.

District 9 - Grain (official movie promotion page). The historical breadbasket of North America is the logical place for this district.

District 10 - Livestock (2:15). Dalton travelled from 10 to 13 years before the story begins (3:1). Minnesota and Iowa is historically significant livestock region. It is inayofuata to 7 making Katniss's statement about seeing distant lights and wondering if they are from 7 au 10 make sense.

District 11 - Agriculture, Orchards (1:15), along with District 3, it was the first to be under rebel control in the sekunde revolution (3:9). According to an interview with Suzanne Collins, this District was to be around Atlanta.

District 12 - Mining, Coal (1:1), located in Appalachia (1:3), portion nicknamed "The Seam" (1:1), entire district surrounded kwa a 20-feet high electrical fence (1:1), less than one siku travel kwa high-speed (250mph) train to Capitol (1:3), Population: 8000 (1:1), end of the line unless wewe count District 13 (1:6). Within a week's walk from District 13 au 45 dakika kwa hovercraft (3:2). The Northern Anthracite Field of NE Pennsylvania is the most logical location. It is along a train route, close to NJ where
District 13 should be, small enough to be surrounded kwa an electric fence, and anthracite coal has zaidi energy than the bituminous coal of other regions, therefore its mining and transport would be zaidi efficient. Based on new information regarding the Raven Rock Mountain Complex in PA and Mt. Weather in VA, brought to my attention kwa Tracee Orman, I have revised the location of 12 to be the ridgeline just south of Cumberland, MD which has several coal mines in a close area near a rail station.

District 13 - Graphite Mining (1:6), Nuclear Research (2:10), underground (2:10), beyond District 12 (1:6), large population (2:10), but many infertile due to a pox (3:1). Although no know graphite deposits exist in New Jersey it has significant artificial graphite manufacture. It is sufficiently close to the Northern Anthracite Field of NE Pennsylvania and much military-industrial complex infrastructure. Based on new information regarding the Raven Rock Mountain Complex in PA and Mt. Weather in VA, brought to my attention kwa Tracee Orman, I have revised the location of 13 to be a merging of these complexes.

Other Contributing Factors
These locations are supported further kwa the book in that besides District 12, which is too small to be of significant value, District 8 and District 11 are the closest to District 13. District 8 revolted first which could have been the result of ease of infiltration kwa District 13 to kupanda the seeds of discontent. District 11 along with 3 was the first to be under rebel control, as it is also the furthest from the Capitol. Although the path backtracks a little bit, the path of the Victor Tour going from District 12 to 1 in order, skipping the Victor's District (2:1), would be fairly logical with this layout. District 11 and 12 are furthest from District 5, the power district, which would explain the fact that the fence and other electrical items are rarely with power in 12 and the fact that they use the night vision glasses to pick matunda in District 11 rather than having lighting, suggesting that electricity is scarce there too.

FADE IN:
We focus onto what appears an abandoned battle field.

Streets are littered with broken glass shatters, turned over
dumpsters, trash and other debris of buildings. The aftermath
of a riot.

DISTRICT 8.

Even inside, the rioters have done their job. The destroyed
room is framed kwa smashed in windows, words and other
graffiti soak in on the walls. Small flames of moto arise
from different areas.

The beginnings of an Uprising.

Factual error: At the beginning of the scene where Katniss fights Clove after getting the backpack with Peeta's medicine, Clove throws a kisu at her, and it cuts her forehead. If someone gets even a tiny scratch on his/her forehead it bleeds a lot, so a cut this big should at least blind Katniss with all the blood pouring from it (as the book says). But after struggling and running for her life, there's not a single drop of blood on her, and when Peeta rubs the medicine on her forehead, it is as if the wound was days old.

Continuity: When Katniss, Peeta and Cato are on juu of the Cornucopia,...

Eleven's Twelve


Deep in the trees, in the midst of their Games,
We stood together: a pact, a team, friends.
Your presence revived me, weakened my pains,
Brought back who I was outside of their lens.

Yet now I lay with you, knowing you’re gone
Watching your innocence fade from your eyes.
As a parting wish, I whisper a song,
A hymn that follows your soul as it dies.

Your eyes flicker shut, your breath is now gone,
Yet your soul echoes throughout the vast wood,
Filling these desolate trees with a song;
And through my tears I stand where wewe once stood,

Holding a young girl whom I barely knew,
Eleven’s tribute, forever my Rue.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his upendo to flee.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Where I told wewe to run so we’d both be free.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.

Are you, are you
Coming to the tree
Wear a mkufu of rope, side kwa side with me.
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree

this is what rue herd last: Deep in the meadow, under the willow A kitanda of grass, a soft green mto Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes And when again they open, the sun will rise.
Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard wewe from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings
them true
Here is the place where I upendo you.
Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A vazi, pazia of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings
them true
Here is the place where I...

We all upendo the hunger games right? (duh! au wewe wouldn't be kusoma this)
But all of us have a different opinion of Twilight. Would the hunger games movie REALLY be the new twilight.
I doubt it very much.

For one thing, the hunger games is a completely different story (try as I might, I could not find a connection between 'vegetarian' Wanyonya damu and teenagers being forced to kill each other).
For another thing, the hunger games doesn't have the right elements to generate the same crazy hype that twilight created.

Now kwa the right elements, I mean:

Hi guys, I'm currently at the end of the first book. So here is my review on the first book before I watch the movie later on.

Story-Line

I was very impressed with the story, despite that it was complex. Well that's because I need to watch the movie to follow the story! I just couldn't get enough of the plot and I have personally say the series is even better than the awful Twilight Saga.

The Characters

Katniss and Peeta are the two characters who are better than Edward and Bella, they have zaidi chemistry than Edward and Bella and I just can't understand why people tend to compare these couples....
