Gaipan

Gaipan was a small village located in the western Earth Kingdom. After being taken over by the Fire Nation, it was destroyed by a catastrophic flood. However, due to Sokka's last minute intervention, the villagers were all safely evacuated.

History
In the past, Gaipan was a sleepy little town of loggers and woodsmen. However, during the War, it was captured by the Fire Nation and converted into an outpost. It was occupied primarily by average citizens and soldiers for several years. To the west, a large, man-made dam held a reservoir, which served as the town's main source of water. The Freedom Fighters strove to liberate the town from the Fire Nation, and for years ambushed their patrol troops and cut off their supply lines.

The occupants of Gaipan were all nearly killed when Jet and his Freedom Fighters filled up the dam to it's brim and ruptured it with Blasting jelly. All the water utterly flooded the entire town. Fortunately, Sokka was able to warn its citizens, and lead them away to safety before the plan was carried out.
