The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes provided more background information about countless concepts introduced in The Hunger Games trilogy. It elaborated immensely on the history of the Games themselves – and many of the ideas that were synonymous with the annual event by the time the original books took place. It also revealed that many ideas were pioneered by Snow in an attempt to save his beloved tribute Lucy Gray from certain death.However, perhaps the most important thing The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes fleshes out is “The Hanging Tree,” the revolutionary battle cry introduced in Mockingjay. Audiences get their first look at the actual tree that gave the song its title and find out that it was the primary place the Peacekeepers inflicted punishment on the citizens of District 12. Just one of the horrors she witnessed there inspired Lucy Gray Baird, the Victor of the 10th Hunger Games, to write the song that went on to become the most important symbol of the Second Rebellion.Music became so prominent in District 12 largely thanks to the Covey. This was a nomadic group of people who loved music and song. The Covey avoided the conflict with the Capitol, choosing to fight for no side in the First Rebellion. They lived on the outskirts of the District until they were forced into District 12. When they were forced into the Districts, anyone who resisted this change, including Lucy Gray’s family, was either beaten or killed. Forced into a new home, the Covey had to find a way to survive and music provided that answer.
