The Constitution for Panem
In this government, there will be one absolute ruler, but they must serve the People, and not interfere with their inalienable rights. To do so would seal one's fate of eternal imprisonment or even execution.
Article I
Election of the President:
Only the mayor of Each District may vote for the president of Panem. If he or she so chooses, the mayors may hold private elections to see who the people
want as the president, but ultimately, it's the mayor who decides which candidate their District votes for. The President has the power to amend the Constitution. But, if the amendment is undesirable, the Districts, meaning the mayor of each District, may vote for the veto of the amendment. The Districts may also petition for an amendment, but the President can refuse. However if the majority of the Districts petition for the same law again, then the President must put it into the Constitution.
Article II
If the Districts rebel, then there will be a yearly games called the Hunger Games. Two children from each District will be chosen to participate. One girl, and one boy between the ages of 12 and 18. They will be put into a massive outdoor arena and they will have to fight to the death. The Victor will receive eternal immunity from all Reapings(the picking of Tributes for the Games), and the District in which the Victor lives, will receive free food a week called Parcel Day for a year. The winning District will also be showered in gifts. Every twenty-five years, a special version of the Games will take place called the Quarter Quell.
