The Capitol's control

The Capitol’s control refers to the government’s authority over the district(s) responsible for producing resources like food, labor, or raw materials, often without local input. This control can involve setting policies, imposing taxes, and regulating economic activity to maintain the central government’s power. It ensures that the Capitol stays in charge by limiting districts’ independence, directing their productivity for the benefit of the ruling body, and preventing rebellions. Essentially, it’s a way of consolidating authority over assets and populations to sustain the government’s dominance.
