District 9

District Nine - Grain

The people of District Nine like those in Seven benefit greatly from the scale of their district. It's harder for Pecekeepers to keep track of citizens spread over acres and acres of grain and living in small hamlets and communal farm buildings. The isolated up bringing of the people gives them few worries about life outside their home and Panem as a whole. This attitude creates a very calm populace that the Capitol know will bring them little trouble.

Although illegal some District Nine citizens steal hops from the capitol fields to create their own home-brewed beer. This proves to be a good earner for those brave enough to try though the penalty is death for those who are caught, then again most peacekeepers enjoy a good beer as much as a field worker so brewers ensure their beer is the best just in-case.

Children of Nine are expected to work alongside their parents in the fields to help increase their families yield rather than for their own wage. Once eighteen and free from the reaping young adults are expected to join a collective farm before starting a family of their own, these run down places are the primary reason the most popular date for marriages in Nine is the day after the reaping.
