After that, they are seen sitting on a hill overlooking the woods, and Gale insists that he and Katniss could run away from District 12 if it weren't for their families. After this, a hovercraft appears noisily, and Katniss and Gale retreat further into the woods. To make up for making Katniss lose the only deer she had seen all year, he throws a stone at the trees, making a whole flock of birds fly into the air, and Katniss shoots one of them. Katniss then ventures to the forest to hunt a deer, only for it to be scared off by her friend Gale Hawthorne. Katniss then eases her to bed as she sings her a lullaby. In District 12, Primrose Everdeen is screaming in the background while her sister Katniss Everdeen calms her down, mostly because she is terrified that she will be reaped. Every year, each district must hold a raffle (known as the "reaping") to choose one boy and one girl (ranging from the ages 12–18) to participate in the Hunger Games, a competition in which each of the twenty-four contestants (known as " tributes") fight to the death in a televised arena until only one is left alive.
After its crushing victory, the Capitol devised the Hunger Games as an annual reminder to the twelve districts of its authority, and as continuing punishment for the rebellion.
74 years ago, the poverty-stricken districts of Panem rebelled against the wealthy, controlling the Capitol. The nation of Panem has risen out of the ravaged ruins of what was once known as North America.
