I feel like this show has a lot of historic parallels to China's Invasion of Tibet..Tibet would be the air nomads (Buddhist-like virtues), and China would be the Fire Nation-- invading. If anyone has seen the movie "7 years in Tibet" or read the book of the same name, it's about this European guy going to Tibet and teaching the Dalai Lama and it has the story of what happened with China's invasion of Tibet. It's a great masterpiece of a movie. If anyone is curious about it, check it out, it's good :) (and it has Brad Pitt!!) I hope I'm not the only one who sees the historic parallels here.
