Power or Control

In my novel, Hunger Games, both themes of power or control are present because the capitol has the power and controls the districts, but since I must choose one, I would choose control. In the Hunger Games, the Capitol has control over the people and what they are meant to do. For example, District 11 is in charge of agriculture and District 12 is in mining. The capitol had decided this and that gives them control over the twelve districts. Another way that control is shown in the book is on page 82 of the novel. On this page is a brief description of the Avox Girl being taken away by a hover craft because she did something the capitol was against. They took her away, made her a worker, killed her friend, and cut up her tongue. This is one other way the capitol has power of the people. one more example that control is shown throughout the Hunger Games, is when Katniss, the main character, is in the arena. She has no control over what happens such as, fires, or storms, or the rules that the Game-Makers decide upon. She only has to survive. and the Game-Makers have complete control over how they want to affect the games and meddle around as much as possible. In my novel I believe that control is the main theme and it is the capitol who has complete control over the people in Panem.
