South America is connected to panem but in a very small sliver of land and there no real big civilizations there. But people have spread out among the continent and have adapted (hunger games bibliography )

Rest of the world has suffered greatly due to climate change. Russians rule what is left of Europe and of course Russia and China. Africa and India have no signs of life really. Small traces of life but very minor.

Australia is basically mostly flooded but there are some remnants of it left.
