District 12

Industry
District 12's industry is coal mining. This is very dangerous as mine explosions are common and many people die annually in the mines. This also makes District 12 incredibly dirty.

Life
The citizens of District 12 are incredibly poor. District 12 is the poorest district and many children end up taking tesserae. Children spend their time working at home with their parents and in school until they are eighteen. When they turn eighteen, males go to work in the mines and females begin working in shops or taking care of their families as best as they can.

Hunger Games
District 12 tributes don't have any skills necessary to survive in the Games. Since going into the forests near the district is illegal and punishable by death, they don't have any experience with nature. Once children become eighteen and aren't eligible for the Hunger Games anymore, they enter the mines where they become skilled with a pick axe. This could be useful for the Games but since they learn how to use it after they can't be in the Games, it's useless.
