Talk:Air Nomad Genocide/@comment-3986546-20110510151531

Something that always bothered me: Sozin wanted to expand the fire nation, he wanted everyone to enjoy the wealth of his nation, he had only one problem at the time: Roku, so Roku dies and he knows that the next avatar is goint to be an air nomad, he decides to exterminate all of them, he does not succeed, but what was the problem?? The new avatar, Aang, didn't show himself for 100 years, Sozin and even Azulon could have easily expanded the nation since "the only threat the fire nation has" (the avatar) was gone. They had a 100 years, 3 generations of firelords, to expand their wealth, why suddenly the "ceasefire", I mean Sozin exterminated the air nomads, he died, Azulon could have started wiping out the water tribes, to me it looked harder and more difficult to exterminate a tribe that lives on 4 locations in the world then to destroy the water tribe, Zhao almost made if it wasn't for Aang (that means they could have done it way before) and we saw that Sozin already conquered Ba Sing Se ( the fire nation emblem was shown hangin on the outer wall) In the show it is like it's almost impossible for them now, weird...
