District 1 - District 1 makes the luxury goods that decorate and beautify our great Capitol. Its excellent taste and craftsmanship keep Capitol residents bewigged and bedazzled year-round.

District 3 - Panem is one of the most advanced nations in mankind's history, thanks to the efforts of District 3.

District 7 - This beautiful district is lush with trees, from which these citizens supply lumber and paper. The people of District 7 are hardworking and down-to-earth. "It's nature, lumber, wood. Earthy, beautiful and wearable, but yet cool," Dotti remarked. Check out the get the look video HERE.

District 10 - The gentle lowing of cattle is the first thing a visitor to District 10 hears.

District 12 - One of the outer districts, this is nonetheless a crucial one. These brave and hardy workers descend deep into the earth each day to mine the coal that keeps the nation running.
