The districts are forced to participate in the annual event from "summary" of The Politics of The Hunger Games by Jamey Heit

The districts, as we know, have no choice but to participate in the annual event known as the Hunger Games. This event, mandated by the Capitol, serves as a form of control and punishment for the districts. It is a reminder of the Capitol's power and authority over them. The districts are forced to select a male and female tribute to compete in the Games, a decision that is met with fear and dread each year. The selection process, known as the Reaping, is a stark reminder of the districts' lack of autonomy. Each year, the Capitol sends representatives to conduct the Reaping, further emphasizing the Capitol's hold over the districts. The tributes chosen are taken away from their families and forced to participate in a fight to the death, a brutal display of the Capitol's cruelty. The districts are left with no choice but to comply with the Capitol's demands. They are under constant surveillance and scrutiny, with any sign of rebellion swiftly dealt with. The Capitol's rule is enforced through fear and intimidation, ensuring that the districts remain submissive and obedient. The annual event serves as a means of entertainment for the Capitol citizens, who watch the Games unfold with a sense of detachment. They are desensitized to the violence and death, viewing it as mere spectacle. The districts, on the other hand, are forced to confront the harsh reality of the Games, with their lives hanging in the balance.
  1. The concept of the districts being forced to participate in the Hunger Games is a stark reflection of the power dynamics at play in Panem. The Capitol's control over the districts is absolute, with the annual event serving as a brutal reminder of their subjugation. The districts have no choice but to comply, their fates determined by the Capitol's whims.
