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.

Note: Hi this is my first ff that isn't about the Penguins of Madagascar so I hope it's good. It's just something that I sort of thought up.

-----------------------------------------------------------

(Katniss's POV)

I walked through the woods on the boundaries of District 12, bow and arrow in hand. Spring was exploding everywhere...flowers sprouting through the dew-covered grass. Sunlight danced off the bright green leaves on tall trees and short stumpy bushes. I crept through the trees, carefully positioning my steps, trying not to crunch dead leaves au break twigs that might scare away my prey....

I trudge up the stairs of our wooden cabin, and collapse into the arms if my bed. I am out like a light. The inayofuata morning, I feel like I'll never be able to roll out of kitanda again. I sadly, eventually have to as I slide down onto the floor, and tumble down the stairs headfirst, blanket and all. I realize I have walked in on my family breakfast, as I slowly get up, and see their faces. As grim as can be. But why would they be like this? Did someone in our family pass away? These maswali are immediately answered kwa my mother and father, as if they can read my mind.
"Uh, son, I know it's hard,...

I never in a million years wanted my name to be drawn. When it was, reality hit me... with a train.
"Stephen Leigh!" The booming voice over the microphone exclaimed.
That was my name, but why was I being called during the Reaping? I walked towards the stage slowly trying to figure out what I had done wrong. I was 17 years old but I had only signed up for 2 tesserae. My brother who would be 19 now, always signed up for the tesserae for our family. He had signed up for 10-15 before his name was drawn 7 years zamani to go into the Hunger Games. He died near the end against the remaining pack of career's....

Sunlight makes me wince and turn away from the window. Things are okay, I guess. Sunlight makes me sad, though. It reminds me too much of lazy Sundays with him, up in trees, laughing and running through endless fields of wildflowers. Peeta. Me. Us. Together. Could it really have only been two days zamani we were dreaming of a future together?
Tonight is the Opening Ceremony where the tributes ride through the City mduara, duara in the Capitol on chariots, shown off to the world. It makes me nervous, thinking about who he will face against inayofuata week, the stars sent to slaughter disguised as entertainment....

Introduction:

When the autumn leaves have Lost their hue, when the snow has melted away, when the glittering sun has shone bright, illuminating the dreary atmosphere of the districts whose people shall be clothed in their best, it is that time of the year.

Yes, it is that time of the year. At last.

Although Hunger Games is amazingly good, and I encourage everyone to watch/read it and like it, there are a lot of things that annoy me.
For example, it is only natural to ask if wewe are on Team Peeta au Gale, but now it is getting a bit annoying. One of the main reasons I like Hunger Games is that it is nothing like Twilight. Now, everyday people are asking what team are wewe on? There shouldn't be teams! If wewe like Peeta wewe don't have to hate Gale. Katniss got Peeta in the end, but she still liked Gale. wewe can like Peeta and Gale and all the other guys in Hunger Games.

District 1 (luxury items): Well, being in the games is a huge honor here in District 1!

District 2 (masonry): Are wewe kidding me?! THE GAMES ARE HUGE FOR US!!!!! We always want to win, always known and feared for our bloodlust!

District 3 (electronics): *prior to bloodbath* okay, so the speed it'll take me to get into there and get the kisu and back out again is approximately a minute, compared to the speedier 20-second tributes, but what about getting out? And the probability...what did they say about that again? Oh, right, about 22% of tributes die in the first quarter in the bloodbath...then...

She couldn't believe that the siku was finally here. The smile on her face refused to be contained as she looked in the mirror; admiring the dress that flattered her in all the right places. Annie smiled back at her as she adjusted the veil. She was glad that she had asked Annie to be her Maid of Honour as she felt it was also a way of honouring Finnick. Her smile slipped slightly at the thought of the fallen Victor. However, it swiftly returned as she thought about Peeta, who almost became a fallen Victor himself. Those dark days, when Peeta's mind was the sole property of the Capitol, thanks...

Here's a parody I wrote! (:

Hey I heard wewe were a tribute
Oooh,
Peeta, I'll take wewe home, I swear to you.
In the cave I'll kiss you.
I wanna live through these games,
with you.
Hey I heard wewe like me too
Oooh.

2 to 1 lets do it.
Hunger games, let's best not lose it.
Sick of waiting, let's just choose it.
Here with Katniss - She's the coolest.
I don't care, if the rest are right there.
Throw your arrows up in the air.
Aint no surprise she can climb so high,
touching the sky, hope ill be her guy.
Girl on moto - boy with bread.

Back in November, Deadline reported that Lionsgate already had a short orodha of writers they wanted to pen the sequel to "The Hunger Games." According to the report, Simon Beaufoy, the writer behind the Academy Award-winning "Slumdog Millionaire" script, topped the list.


Now the Los Angeles Times is reporting that not only has Beaufoy signed on to write "Catching Fire," but that director Gary Ross will return as well. There had been no direct confirmation that Ross would return, and until "The Hunger Games" comes out, there probably won't be, but as things stand, Ross will likely direct.

I nodded my stomach hurt a lot, whether I was hungry au nervous I didn’t know.

“We’ll be pulling in any moment now”, Elisabeth alisema when I walked out there, “better eat quickly”, she added.

I sat inayofuata to Pranet, and then Thayer came out and sat across from me and smiled lightly and piled eggs onto his plate.

I looked away and but hash, reli browns on my plate and took some toast, I didn’t want to eat I still didn’t feel too good.

The clink of nails against glass. The silence of thousands holding their breath. The rustling of paper. The sharp intake of air as she prepares to speak the words that will end the world.

I stand in the middle. The middle of the crowd, the middle of her friends, the middle of the ages. But standing front and center was one thing I don't want.

The woman from the Capitol spoke two seemingly meaningless, average words I hear on a daily basis. But today their meaning was different. Their meaning wasn't love. Their meaning was doom.

"THE HUNGER GAMES" (2012) Review

The mwaka 2008 saw the publication of a best-selling novel for young adults called "The Hunger Games". Written kwa Suzanne Collins, the novel's success led to the publication of two sequels and a Hollywood adaptation of the first film.

Directed kwa Gary Ross and adapted kwa him, Collins and Billy Ray; "THE HUNGER GAMES" is about a sixteen year-old girl named Katniss Everdeen, who lives in a dystopian post-apocalyptic future in the nation of Panem, which consists of a wealthy city called the Capitol that is surrounded kwa 12 less affluent districts. As punishment for...
