In the hunger games, the capitol selects one boy and one girl, each
between the ages of 12 and 18 from each of the twelve districts, putting
them against each other in a game of survival where they are forced to
fight one another to the death. This is all viewed publicly with others to
watch as entertainment. The girl in the book, Panem volunteers as a
tribute to fight because her little sister got called and she freaked out. I
like the book because it shows adventure but teaches you a lesson. In my
eyes it reminds me of the government because in the "games" every
movement from the characters that are fighting is being continuously
watched by the people in the capital that controls the TV, for the viewers
in the public. They also have control over weather, animals, danger, also
life and death threatening altercations. It makes it more entertaining for
the public but for the districts they're all losing children.
