What role did the Mockingjays have in the war in the hunger games?

The mocking jay is so significant in The Hunger Games trilogy because it is a symbol of rebellion. As you'll know, if you've read the books, the series is mostly based on rebellion.
The mocking jay is considered a symbol of rebellion even before Katniss wears it in the Games. This negative opinion of them comes from the Capitol. Originally, there were jabber jays and mockingbirds. The jabber jays were muttations, originally meant to show the power of the Capitol over the districts. But, when the jabber jays were finally out of use in the districts, a few remained and bred with mockingbirds, thus keeping their species alive.
The new species, the mocking jays, lost the ability to memorise and repeat human words that the jabber jays had previously owned, but could imitate birdsongs and a wide variety of human noises, such as crying or humming. They were now known as a species that was never meant to happen, rebels against the Capitol.

∙ 12y agoThe mockingjay is the symbol of the rebellion and luck. The mayor's daughter gave a pin with it on it to Katniss before she went into the arena as a good luck charm and told her with it, she wouldn't die.

∙ 12y agoTo paraphrase something said in Catching Fire, the mockingjay was something that the Capitol hadn't wanted to exist. They were bred by accident, outside the Capitol's control. Basically, even before Katniss does the fateful act with the berries and becomes a symbol for rebellion, the mockingjay is already a symbol for defiance against the Capitol.

But if your refereeing to the Hunger Games as in the actual games, then its because her little sister Primrose Everdeen was choosen but she didnt want her sister to get killed or lose her(same thing) so she took the chance of taking the chances to die instand of her sister. Also, she is important because she won the Hunger Games too.
