Answer 5

In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, "The Hunger Games," a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. The terrain, rules, and level of audience participation may change but one thing is constant: kill or be killed.

The novel, "The Hunger Games", has been accused of plagiarizing its plot from the Japanese novel (1999) and movie (2000) of the name "Battle Royale" by Koushun Takami. In both "The Hunger Games" and "Battle Royale", teenagers from high schools are chosen by lottery to compete in the annual fight-to-the-death event, taken place in an outdoor arena. The teenagers are to use skills and weaponry to survive an outdoor environment while attempting to neutralize other competitors until only one remain alive.
