There’s a saying in China “if the government wants to bring you down, they will bring you down”. In the U.S. there are carefully crafted laws and a strict Constitution that guarantee certain rights in China there are no such things.

Soiety#3 Pros
The Chinese government doesn't like much dissent, so new things can happen more quickly.. Of course that has downsides, but the pro here is how good their government is.The Chinese government can make the hard decisions, something that is America, through it’s current debt crisis, has demonstrated it can’t.

Also after the war started, they had the children fight in the war because the men were too drunk to fight in the war. Because of this, many of the children are scarred for life and majority of the children now have some kind of mental disease due to the fact that they were fighting in battle.

Not everyone went to every event. Many children and parents might have not gotton along and fought and dissobay there children and parents.In catching fire everthing is messed up such as the capitol thinks there are to many people so they have a hunger games everyyear and the last one to LIVE gets a lot of food and money so atleast 25 people die and only 1 person lives.
Eleonore:
They created poor laws that didn't even make sense, so, the people did it anyway. For example, in the 1950's in the U.S., the stupid law that they made was that the African-Americans were to be separated from the Caucasions. The African-Americans had to drink and go to different bathrooms than the Caucasions.
Eleonore:
Many of the leaders in Dystopian societies such as these four societies end up causing a holocaust, a genocide, or anything having to cause to kill other people. For example, the Nazis put the Jewish people into concentration camps and killed them all. Or like Sierra Leone in which they also had the children fight in the revolution.

Alot of people probaly might have not liked or hated there leader and the rules and laws he/she made. They might not know or understand the community and proablys nervers ask what the people want and everyone does the oppisite and everythings falls out of place and it doesn't turn out right.In The book im reading catching fire everyone hates there leaders and make so many lawas and rules noone else likes so everyone is suffering and in miserery.
Eleonore
The societies that fall usually have a very corrupt (or poor) government. If you look at Germany, you will see that they were willing to take any person on if they offered to be their new leader. And what happened? Adolf Hitler took over and Hitler destroyed basically all of the Jews in the world. The same thing happened in Rome: they were willing to except any new Emperor, which kind of destroyed them because the Emperor (most of the time) didn't really care about the people of their Empire. They abused the power that they were given to suit themselves. Nero, for example, held very lavish plays and most of the time, Nero was in it doing one of the roles. Even in the book Divergent, the government was very corrupt and they were willing to accept anybody who was in the top of the rankings.
Society #2 Pros
People started to get more friends and cars started to be made a lot more. Suburban houses were far from jobs, schools, and businesses.With the need for cars on the rise, car companies produced roughly 8 million new cars per year during this time.

Society#2 Economic Cons
Second is the Baby Boom and the economic prosperity that followed World War II. These forces made the teenage subculture of which students today still are a part. This connection will be valuable in exposing middle schoolers to the idea that they are part of a historical process that has changed over time
