Poverty

[close] Did you ever wonder what it was like to live in district 12. The poorest district in Panem where if you even so much as look at a peacekeeper funny you might be killed. After the mocking jay rebellion the Peacekeepers have gotten much stricter.

Can you survive life in District 12? HUNGER GAMES MAY BE INCLUDED LATER
