District 8

Industry
District 8's industry is textiles and clothing. They are responsible for creating the clothes and uniforms that every citizen of Panem wears on a daily basis. Because the district needs to produce clothes for all of Panem, it is the second largest district after District 6 but it has the largest population.

Life
Children begin working at a very young age because of the fact that District 8 is incredibly poor. Parents live with their children until the child is married and the families live in apartment-like buildings that are very small and can comfortably house two people, although most apartments house at least five people.

Hunger Games
District 8 tributes tend to die early in the Games. They don't do well in the Games because the skills that they practice aren't helpful in the arena. District 8 also has a barren landscape with no green plants in sight. This makes it hard for the tributes to survive in nature because they aren't used to it.
