Fictional universe of The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games universe is a fictional world appearing in The Hunger Games trilogy written by Suzanne Collins.

Panem

The series takes place at an unspecified point in the future. By this time, the nation of Panem rules North America in place of the governments of Canada, the United States, and Mexico, which failed to survive.

Panem's seat of power is a superficially utopian city called the Capitol located in the Rocky Mountains. Outside of the Capitol, the nation is divided into twelve districts under the hegemony of a totalitarian dictatorship, headed by the tyrannical President Coriolanus Snow. A thirteenth district had existed but was destroyed by the Capitol seventy-five years prior to the beginning of The Hunger Games during a period known as the Dark Days. In Mockingjay, it is revealed that District 13 retreated underground after the Dark Days. This was the main source of the rebellion that happened in Catching Fire and Mockingjay. The Capitol developed the Hunger Games as an annual event to punish the citizens of Panem for their rebellion and to remind citizens of consequences for rebelling against the absolute power of the Capitol. The country of Panem, though occupying the whole of North America, isn't as big as the current North America.
