With a combined box-office haul of nearly $3 billion, The Hunger Games franchise is one of the highest-grossing film series ever made. Suzanne Collins' bestselling trilogy — along with its prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes — built a dystopian world of 12 districts, brutal televised combat, and a rebellion that changed everything. This quiz covers the books, films, characters, and lore of Panem.
Each round presents 10 randomized questions from a pool of 50, with four multiple-choice options and instant feedback after every answer. Your final score comes with a performance tier and shareable results.
You'll discover what each district specializes in, how Katniss became the Mockingjay, and the true history behind the Games themselves. Whether you've read every page or just watched the films, this quiz will challenge what you know about Panem's world of survival, sacrifice, and revolution.
Panem is the post-apocalyptic nation that replaced North America after a series of ecological disasters. It consists of the wealthy Capitol, located in the Rocky Mountains, and 12 surrounding districts — each assigned a specific industry, from coal mining (District 12) to luxury goods (District 1). A 13th district was believed destroyed after a failed rebellion but secretly survived underground.
There are four main Hunger Games movies starring Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen: The Hunger Games (2012), Catching Fire (2013), Mockingjay Part 1 (2014), and Mockingjay Part 2 (2015). A prequel film, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, was released in 2023 starring Tom Blyth and Rachel Zegler. Together the five films earned nearly $3 billion worldwide.
Katniss Everdeen is from District 12, the coal mining district and the poorest of Panem's districts. Located in what was once the Appalachian region, District 12 is where Katniss volunteers as tribute in place of her younger sister Primrose at the 74th Hunger Games reaping ceremony.
