According to Greek mythology, seven girls and seven boys were sacrificed to the bull-headed Minotaur monster to keep him from going out on a rampage. This is similar to The Hunger Games, in which twelve girls and twelve boys are sacrificed to be in a game where they have to fight to the death until one remains. This happens to remind the common people that the state controls every aspect of their lives.

Is the book the Hunger Games base on a true story?
The Hunger Games isn't based on true story, however, it is based on a Greek mythology namely Theseus and the Minotaur. The mythology involves where Athens (the Districts) were forced to send 7 boys and 7 girls (the Tributes) to Crete (the Capitol) and then delivered to the custody of the Labyrinth (the Arena) where (instead to fight to the death) they will be eaten by the Minotaur (probably represented by the Mutts), anyway, Hunger Games is also based on Roman Gladiator fights where participants fight to the death for entertainment... in conclusion, The Hunger Games has both Greek and Roman influence.
