Fire Nation circus

The Fire Nation circus is a traveling circus that performs in Fire Nation colonies in the Earth Kingdom. The circus entertains Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom families alike by hosting acts from rope walkers, acrobats and plate jugglers. It also features a large collection of rare and exotic animals, including a lion vulture and at one point a "wind buffalo".

History
The circus was once visited by Princess Azula, who went there looking for her childhood friend, the acrobatic Ty Lee. Ty Lee had been traveling with the circus as a rope walker. After she refused to accompany Azula on her mission to capture Zuko and Iroh, the princess wished to see one of her performances. The circus hosted a private show in honor of the princess, featuring an acrobatic performance of Ty Lee, who walked the tightrope over a burning net and the circus' wild animals running loose. After that terrifying experience, Ty Lee decided to resign from the circus and join Azula on her quest.

Some time later, the circus obtained Appa, after he was kidnapped by sandbenders in the Si Wong Desert and traded to some beetle-headed merchants. The circus master ordered the circus trainer to tame Appa, which resulted in the beast's fear of fire. Appa performed only once on stage as the "wind buffalo," but he later escaped during that same performance.

Its ultimate fate after the War is unknown.
