1. Explain the meaning of the Hunger Games.

1.)     The Hunger Games were created to serve as a form of punishment for the 13 districts of Panem after they tried to revolt against the Capitol. The Hunger Games are an annual event. Every year, a male and a female between the ages of 12-18 are selected from each district in a process called "the Reaping". The selected pair are then taken to the Capitol to prepare for the battle that will take place in just 3 days.

The original rules state that one person will remain alive, although, *SPOILER* in Peeta and Katniss' case, two victors were allowed to emerge.
