Setting

The settings in this story are few : District 12 , the Capitol, and the arena.

The first setting mentioned was District 12 where Katniss lives. She struggles everyday to survive in this brutal place . In the book the section that Katniss lives in District 12 is called the Seam because it is where the coal miners and poor of District 12 live . It is described as a rundown place , certainly not the fanciest there every was. Things looked depressing at times and very simple. District 12 also has a wood forest on its outskirts . It has many hills that surround it . The forest a;so has a river that runs along the forest and is filled with many fish and water plants . The forest is an escape for Katniss from the harsh life she lives in the Seam .

The Capitol is a beautiful place. It has tall buildings that reach for the sky . The building seem to glisten in rainbow of hues. There were cars that shined while they went down the road . The people were oddly dressed and seem alien with their hair. But even though the Capitol looked spectacular to Katniss , they also seemed artificial they seemed fake . They either seemed to dark or light or didn't fit in at all .In the Capitol they stay in a training tower that had 12 floors for each district . Underground it had a a sort of like gym and that had many centers were you could learn different skills to the arena. Katniss prefered all the food that was given : rice, beans , etc.

The last setting was the arena where the other 22 tributes found their deaths . The arena was a valley that had a large lake and many rivers that ran from it . The arena also had a forest that surrounded the lake . At the end of the forest of the was a field , such a field that it was shoulder high with different kinds of plants that were eatable . Anyway Katniss and Peeta hid in one of the caves that ran along a river that lead up to lake . The rivers had many caves that were good from hind although they were very noticeable. These are all the major settings in The Hunger Games.
