The Hunger Games were a tradition that developed from a need of atonement in the Capitol. In order to appease this need, they created a form of death games that struck fear into the hearts of all in the districts and created an environment ripe for rebellion. After 74 years, the districts finally choose to free themselves from this barbaric tradition, and in doing so, showcased the need for the preservation of the stories of these games. Before Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, before the Mockingjay, 73 other victors came, victors who shaped the rebellion decades before it officially began, and victors who shaped Panem as a whole throughout their years of life. Some are legendary, like Finnick Odair and Haymitch Abernathy, others are more secretive, such as Abigail Lester and Jasmine Pentacle, but each left a lasting impact on this country, whether good or bad.
The documents will focus on these victors; beacons of hope, defiance, hate, and privilege. It looks at their stories, their lives, and their motives, in order to educate us about our shared history as a people. Preserving the past is the key to making a better future, and with this, we begin that process. So let us toast to these incredible people and let us never forget them!

A quick prologue before we get to the good stuff! I'm incredibly excited to be starting this, and though it's my first attempt at anything like it, I'm looking to make sure it succeeds!
