Because there were 13 districts but then District 13 was 'destroyed' so only 12 are left.
No there are only districts in the hunger games and even there it only goes up to district 12
The Hunger Games is about a country called Panem in the ruins of North America somewhat in the future and its annual competition, the Hunger Games. In the Hunger Games, the Capitol, the heart of Panem, forces the twelve surrounding districts to each send one boy and one girl to fight the other districts in Panem. And in the Hunger Games, there is only one rule: Stay Alive.
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)
Well, your district receives food every month. You will never be chosen to compete in the Hunger Games as well (with the exception of the Quarter Quell in Catching Fire). You get to tour all the districts. You get a nice, big house in the Victor's Village and are overall very wealthy for the rest of your life.
Sadly, no. There are only three books in the series: The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay. There will be the Hunger Games movie coming out soon, on March 23, 2012.
The people of the Capital don't participate in The Hunger Games. Only one boy and one girl from each of the 12 districts do
No, its only within the districts of Panem.

There aren't towns in The Hunger Games, only Districts which act as States or Countys, Panem is the country and the capital of Panem is The Capitol.
Only Districts 1, 2, and 4 are considered "career" districts and that means that they trained their whole lives for the Hunger Games. They willingly volunteer at the reaping, where winning is such a huge honor. The career districts are more well fed and have proper meals and clothing because of all the precedent victors.
It started when each district rebelled against the Capitol, so as a punishment and to remind them of their wrong-doing, the Capitol required a boy and a girl from each districts to fight in the Hunger Games.
No, in the first book "The Hunger Games," Suzanne Collins did not come up with the names for the tributes from districts 3-10. She only named the tributes from Districts 1, 2, and 12.
There are only 3 Hunger Games books.
The Hunger Pains is only a book, it's a parody to The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is now out in theaters.
The Capitol restricts certain treats like hot chocolate from its citizens to maintain control and superiority. By limiting access to certain pleasures, they are able to enforce their authority and keep the districts in check through deprivation and oppression. It's a way to assert power and remind the citizens of their dependence on the Capitol.
There are no boring parts in Hunger Games. Only AWESOME parts.
