Hunger strikes can lead to serious health risks, including organ failure and long-term physical damage, which may undermine the protestor's cause. Additionally, in an age dominated by social media, the impact of such actions can be diluted or misinterpreted, as public attention can quickly shift. Furthermore, hunger strikes may alienate potential allies who view the tactic as extreme or unproductive, limiting broader support for the underlying issues. Lastly, governments may respond with indifference or repression, minimizing the effectiveness of the protest.
The duration a person can survive on a hunger strike varies greatly depending on individual health, hydration, and environmental conditions. Generally, most people can survive without food for about 1 to 2 months, but serious health complications can arise after just a few days without nutrition. Hydration plays a crucial role; individuals can survive for only a few days without water. Ultimately, survival time can differ significantly from person to person.

The Dark Days are the days in which the thirteen districts of Panem rose up and fought against the dictating Capitol. However, they did not succeed in defeating them, and district thirteen was destroyed, therefore the Capitol started the yearly Hunger Games, where they remind the twelve districts of what they went through, telling them not to do it again. In the Hunger Games, each district must send to the Capitol one young man and women, between the tribute ages of twelve and eighteen, to be trained in the art of survival, and to be prepared to fight to the death. (taken from the trailer of the movie The Hunger Games, released in theaters March 23, 2012)
during the dark days, the district fought the capital and after that they started to have the hunger games to show them that the capital is like, better and stuff.
The Hunger Games trilogy is set in a future time. From the first book, Katniss informs the reader that the new North American nation Panem (derived from the concept espoused by the Roman satirist Juvenal, panem et circenses, "bread and circuses.") rose out of global environmental disaster.Spoiler Alert!The Hunger Games is set seventy-four years after the first Hunger Games, which were held the first year after the end of the District 13 uprising ends. Catching Fire then is set in the seventy-fifth year of the games. The time before the establishment of Panem is referred to the Dark Days. The Dark Days is an unspecified length of time, but can be speculated to be a hundred to a thousand years from our present time. There are few clues given in the book, likely intentionally on Ms. Collins' part, perhaps to focus on the characters and conflict in the story.
