What if the Hunger Games were set in Lebanon?

The last installment of the ever-popular Hunger Games franchise – "Mockingjay, Part 2" – is set to open mid-November, and promises to be a thrilling conclusion to a story about an unlikely symbol and the revolution she unwittingly leads.

Katniss Everdeen's bravery against the oppressive totalitarian rule of President Snow may have inspired districts to rebel, but she has also left a lasting mark on the people who've watched her on the big screen, and this was manifested in Hong Kong's 2014 Umbrella revolution.

This lead many of us to wonder: what if the Hunger Games were set in Lebanon? We came up with the following theories:

Every year since the Civil War, one young man and woman (ages 16 - 25) are picked to represent their districts in a gruelling televized death match that will exhaust their rhetoric training and self-victimizing tactics in a political talk show watched by the nation. Chair-throwing, name-calling and threats are a common sight in these stressful games.

The winner proudly declares his district as being the most victimized sect.

S/He's been in the same position for so long you can't even imagine seeing someone else take his/her seat, and you can't vote for someone new anyway since s/he keeps extending his/her term.

Intended to "keep the peace" after a horrible civil war brought about material destruction, human casualties, sectarian strife, political leaders decide to break up the country in 18 districts.

She's the "Western spy" who has had "dealings with the dirty U.S. Embassy," but really she's just a secularist.

State media has long forgotten about district 19, but with the resurgence of protests, we've come to know them as the "mundasseen," meaning the "infiltrators."

The most unlikely mentor of the new generation, he's that old man - or practically the entire older "activist" generation - that wants to give you advice.

"I was like you back in the day, and I have experience dealing with these [expletive]," he told you as he inhaled his cigarette and looked morosely into the sunset, perhaps recalling memories of botched activism, or simply to make himself seem a brooding, wise type.

A cultural figure, most probably a very famous journalist, who's declared her allegiance to the revolution while still toting the state media line.
