Battle of the Capitol

The Battle of the Capitol was the final conflict of the Second Rebellion and was fought in Mockingjay by invading rebel forces and Peacekeepers loyal to Panem's totalitarian government, for control of the Capitol and thus the Nation of Panem, as well as the arrest of President Snow. It is also described as the "76th Hunger Games" by Katniss Everdeen due to the similarity between the urban battlefield (with its elaborate traps) and an arena. Squad 451, a notable sharpshooter unit which included three victors, was unexpectedly caught up in the battle after Boggs, its commander, was killed. During the battle, rebel forces pushed into the city block by block, overcoming enemy opposition and pods, but also killing dozens of civilians in the crossfire. The climax of the battle saw rebel troops push into City Circle, where an enclosure of children being held as human shields in front of the President's mansion was unexpectedly bombed by a Panem hovercraft on live TV. Rebel medics, including Primrose Everdeen, who attempted to aid the victims were then subsequently killed. Following this, all remaining support for Snow and his regime collapsed and he was subsequently captured.
