District 2's Seal Depicts A Block Of Stone And Carving Tools. The District's Public Presentation Is That Of Stone Quarries, But It Also Manufactures Weaponry, Makes Trains, And Supplies Peacekeepers. The Main Military Complex In The District Is Known As The Nut. Citizens Of District 2 Are Sometimes Called "The Pets" Of The Capitol. They Are The Biggest Supporters Of The Capitol And Therefore Are Pampered And Given Many Extra Conveniences. Some Notable Tributes Are Clove, Cato, Enobaria And Brutus.

District 3's Primary Industry Is General Electronics Of Many Types, Though It Is Known For Also Making Various Mechanical Products Such As Automobiles And Firearms. Their Tributes Are Skilled With Electronics. Some Notable Tributes Are Beetee And Wiress.

District 4's Industry Is Fishing, Thus Most Residents Have Experience Using Nets And Tridents, Making Fishhooks From Scratch, Swimming, And Identifying Edible Sea Life. It Is Considered A Career District. Finnick Odair And Annie Cresta Live In This District. Finnick Was An Important Ally Of Katniss Everdeen In The Quarter Quell.

District 5’s Industry Is Power. It Is Known That Katiness Everdeen Met One Of The Winners From This District During The 75th Hunger Games. Also, Foxface, A Clever Tribute From Katiness’ First Games, Was From District 5.

District 6 Specializes In Transportation, Serving As A Hub For The Transport Network. Not Much Else Is Known About This District Other Than That Both Tributes In The 75th Games Protected Katniss And Peeta, Enjoyed Painting (As Shown In Pre-Games Training, When The Two Would Paint Bright Colors On Each Other[Citation Needed]) And Were Both Addicted To "Morphling," A Morphine-Like Pain Relief Medication, With The Book Suggesting That Morphling Addiction May Have Been A District-Wide Issue.[Citation Needed] During The 74th Hunger Games, Both Male And Female Tributes Were Killed During The First Day. In The Film The Male Was Targeted By Cato, Who Accused Him Of Taking His Knife During A Pre-Games Training Exercise (Though It Was Actually Stolen By Rue). The Female Tribute Was Killed By Marvel With A Falcata (A Blade Weapon). In The Quarter Quell, The Male Tribute Dies On The First Day And The Female Tribute Dies When A Monkey Muttation Bites Her On The Chest And Ruptures Her Internal Organs As She Blocks It From Peeta, Who Was Its Initial Target. Peeta Allows Her To Paint Flowers On His Face With Her Blood, And Describes Many Colors To Her As She Dies.

District 7 Specializes In Lumber And Paper. Apparently A Large Proportion Of District 7's Forest Consists Of Pine, Johanna Mason Comments That Pine Needles "Smell Like Home." District 7 Victor Johanna Mason Won Her Games By Feigning Weakness Early On In Order To Catch Opponents Off-Guard. In The 75th Hunger Games, Johanna Was One Of Katniss's Allies – And Part Of The Conspiracy To Break Out Of The Arena. Her District Partner, Blight, Was Also Part Of The Conspiracy, But He Died After He Accidentally Walked Into The Nearby Force Field During The Blood Rain Hour Of The Arena, Which Electrocuted Him (This Led To Wiress Becoming Mentally Unstable). After Watching Johanna Throw An Axe Into The Cornucopia, Katniss Speculated That Johanna Had Probably Been Throwing Axes Since She Was A Toddler. It Is Believed That President Snow Killed All Her Loved Ones When She Wouldn't Let Herself Be Bought By Rich Capitol Citizens. During The End Of The Game, Johanna Attacked Katniss To Remove The Tracking Device From Her Arm, But Was Revealed In Mockingjay To Have Been One Of The Tributes Captured In The Escape. During Captivity In The Capitol, She Was Tortured By Being Soaked In Water And Then Electrocuted, But Was Later Rescued And Taken To District 13. After That, She Became Hydrophobic And During The Tests Conducted To Assess The Strength And Weakness Of The Soldiers, Johanna Loses Control Of Herself When The Lookalike Capitol Streets Are Flooded With Water. Johanna Also Steals Some Of Katniss's Morphling To Avoid Dreaming About Her Imprisonment. She And Katniss Became Friends And Roommates Over The Course Of The Rebellion.

District 8 Specializes In Textiles (Including At Least One Factory In Which Peacekeeper Uniforms Are Made). District 8 Was One Of The First Districts To Rebel, As Katniss Saw On Mayor Undersee's Television. Two People From District 8, Bonnie And Twill, Escaped During One Of The Uprisings And Informed Katniss Of The Theory That District 13 Still Existed. It Is Implied That Security Is Strict In District 8 Following The Uprising, And The Citizens Are Desperate For Hope. In Mockingjay, Katniss Visits A Hospital In District 8, Which Is Later Bombed By The Capitol. The Leader Of District 8, Paylor, Is Able To Command Fierce Loyalty From Her Soldiers Who Follow Her Orders In Preference To Those Of Alma Coin, The President Of District 13. Paylor Later Becomes President Of Panem.
In The 74th Hunger Games, The Male Tribute From District 8 Died At The Cornucopia At The Hands Of Marvel; The Female Tribute Was Attacked By The Careers On The First Night And "Finished Off" By Peeta When Her Death Did Not Occur Immediately, As Indicated By Cannon Blast. In The 75th Hunger Games, Both Tributes From District 8, Woof And Cecelia, Died In The Initial Battle At The Cornucopia. Woof Was An Elderly, Senile Tribute In His 70's. Cecelia Was A Young Mother Of 3, And Was Noted To Be About 30 Years Of Age. It Is Later Revealed That Cecelia Was To Be An Original Member Of The Arranged Alliance To Save Katniss And Peeta From The Second Arena; However, She Did Not Survive The Initial Bloodbath. Woof Also Had Knowledge Of The Plot.

District 9 Specializes In Grain. It Is Mentioned Once That District 9 Has Many Factories. The District 9 Boy Tribute In The 74th Hunger Games Is Described As Having Hazel Eyes, But Whether That Is A Common Trait In His Region Is Not Stated. He And Katniss Struggled Over A Backpack Of Supplies Until He Was Knifed In The Back By Clove, The District 2 Female Tribute. District 9 Is The Only District To Lose Both Tributes In The Initial Bloodbath Phase Of Both The 74th And 75th Games.

District 10 Specializes In Livestock. Katniss Does Not Note Any Major Tributes From District 10, Except One Boy With A Crippled Leg Who Is Mentioned Several Times. In Mockingjay, Katniss Meets Dalton, A Male From District 10 Who Made It To District 13 On Foot A Few Years Ago. He Reveals Why District 13 Is Eager For New Arrivals. He Explains To Katniss That There Was Some Sort Of Pox Epidemic That Killed Many People And Left A Lot More Infertile. He Tells Her That They Need The Refugees In Order To Expand Their Population. At The 75th Hunger Games, Katniss Notes That The District 10 Tributes, Who Are Dressed As Cows, Have Flaming Belts On As If They Are Broiling Themselves, A Poor Imitation Of Cinna's Techniques To Showcase Katniss At The 74th Hunger Games.

District 11 Specializes In Agriculture. It Is Located Somewhere In The South And Is Very Large. The People Are Housed In Small Shacks And There Is A Harsh Force Of Peacekeepers. Common Traits Are Dark Skin And Brown Eyes. According To Rue, Many Tracker Jacker Nests Were Left There, Leading The Workers To Keep Medicinal Leaves On Hand. In The Orchards, Small Children Were Sent Into The Branches To Pick The Highest Fruit. Sometimes During The Height Of The Harvest They Were Given Night-Vision Goggles To Allow Them To Work After Dark. The District Also Contained Fields Of Vegetables. The Inhabitants Apparently Have Extensive Knowledge Of Herbs. Thresh And Rue Are The Tributes From District 11 For The 74th Hunger Games And Play Important Roles. Rue Was Katniss's Ally And Her Best Friend In The Arena. She Was Good At Hopping From Tree To Tree, But Was Killed By District 1's Marvel. Thresh Was A Powerful Contestant Whom Katniss Admired For His Physical Size, His Pride And His Refusal To Join The Careers. Thresh Saved Katniss From Clove, Whose Skull He Smashed With A Rock, And Spared Katniss Because Of Her Friendship With Rue. While The Novel Is Not Clear As To The Circumstances Regarding His Death, It Is Implied Thresh Was Killed By Cato. In The Movie, Katniss And Peeta See Thresh's Name Up In The Sky Shortly After The Wolf Mutations Are Released Into The Arena, Suggesting That The Wolf Mutts Killed Him. The District 11 Tributes For The 75th Hunger Games Are Chaff And Seeder, Both Of Whom Know Of The Rebellion. Chaff Is An Old Friend Of Haymitch's, And Had An Arm Cut Off During His Games. Although The Capitol Offered An Artificial One, He Refused The Offer. Seeder Tells Katniss That Rue's And Thresh's Families Are Safe. During The Games, Seeder Is Killed During The Initial Bloodbath (It Is Not Known Who Killed Her), And Chaff Is Killed In The Free For All On The Last Day. In Mockingjay, Peeta Tells Caesar Flickerman That Brutus Killed Chaff And He (Peeta) Killed Brutus. It Is Implied That Chaff Died Attempting To Help

District 12 Specializes In Mining (Mainly Coal) And Is The Farthest From The Capitol. They Are At A Disadvantage In The Hunger Games Because They Don't Learn Their District Specialty Until They Are 18. Katniss, Peeta, And Other Major Characters Come From District 12. It Is Located In The Appalachian Mountains, And The District Itself Is Split Into Two Distinct Housing Areas And Social Classes. "The Seam" Is A Slum Where Those Who Work In The Coal Mines Live, Whereas The Mercantile Class Lives In The Town, Centered Around The "Square". Both Classes Are Easy To Distinguish Physically And Generally Socialize Amongst Themselves. Those From The Seam Generally Have Dark Hair, Grey Eyes And Olive Skin, And Those From Merchant Families Typically Have Blond Hair, Blue Eyes, And Fair Skin. Katniss Is From The Seam, Whereas Peeta Is A Baker's Son From Town. It Is Unclear If This Class Divide Exists In Other Districts Or Is Unique To District 12. On The Victory Tour In Catching Fire Katniss Mentions That She Cannot See Where The Well To Do Live In District 11; As It Surely Isn't The Square Where Their Speech Is Being Held. She Also Notes That Many Members Of The Crowd During The Victory Tour Seem Even Poorer Than The Seam Inhabitants In 12. District 12 Is Very Poor And Starvation Is A Major Issue For The Citizens. Due To The Lack Of Food, The Local Capitol Authority Figures – The Mayor And Peacekeepers — Often Bend The Extremely Strict Panem Laws. The Electric Fence Surrounding The District To Prevent Access To The Woods Is Usually Turned Off, And Katniss And Her Friend Gale Often Hunt There For Food For Their Families Or To Raise Money By Selling Their Catches On The Local Black Market. The Black Market, Located At An Old Coal Warehouse Named The Hob, Was Where Many Of The Citizens Made Their Money. The Hob Was Destroyed By The Peacekeepers (Whose Local Commander Was Replaced) In Catching Fire. This Was Followed By The Bombing Of The Entire District After The Escape Of The Tributes During The 75th Hunger Games. However, Ga
