In this part of asia, confucianism is popular.

We can say that it is very popular in Southeast Asian countries and Vietnam

Explanation:

Confucianism was born in China around 500 B.C. of the teachings of Confucius. His students produced a record that we know today as Las Analectas, which collect dialogues and phrases that reflect their guidelines. It spread to other nearby regions, known today as Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asian countries. After more than 2500 years his writings are still studied, although many times the current citizens of these countries do not recognize being Confucian or anything like that, especially the youngest. Even so, in recent years the CCP has resumed Confucianism in its discourse and in the creation of Confucian Institutes, as a spearhead in its softpower policy.

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.  

your answer is rising unemployment and inflation.
