One such family included the Phipps family in which was mentioned as a one of the founding members of the Capitol. Much is unknown about when the Capitol was first built and developed, but it was noted that a group of some of the most wealthy, powerful, elite citizens of Panem and families came together. The Rockies also act as a natural barrier and have served the Capitol well, allowing their air force to bomb the rebels who attempted to invade the city during the Dark Days. Proximity to both the mountains to the east and the large body of water to the west suggests it could somewhere be near the location of present-day Salt Lake City, Utah. It is located in the western, mountainous section of former North America. Following the events of Mockingjay, Paylor becomes the new president, and Panem is transformed into a constitutional republic. The Capitol is known for its fashion and food. It is also the only major city mentioned in the trilogy. Prior to the Second Rebellion, The Capitol was a tyrannical dictatorship, led by President Snow (before his death) and previously President Ravinstill, and held total political and economic dominance over Panem, enforcing its rule through an army of Peacekeepers, capital punishment, propaganda, the fear of nuclear devastation (like District 13), and the Hunger Games. As the seat of power in Panem, this city rules the nation's thirteen districts (twelve after The Dark Days), organizes and celebrates the Hunger Games inside its city limits (protected by anti-aircraft guns and multiple launch rocket systems, or MLRS's). The Capitol is also the colloquial name for the ruling government of Panem. The Capitol of Panem is a technologically advanced, utopian city where the nation's most wealthy and powerful citizens live. " Remember who the real enemy is." ― Haymitch Abernathy, referring to the Capitol.
