Transportation in the World of Avatar

Methods of transportation in the Avatar World vary largely from nation to nation. They vary from motorised transportation like Tank Trains to animal-based transportation like Flying Bison.

Air Nomads and the Water Tribe rely exclusively on unpowered transportation methods, whereas the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation make use of more advanced methods.

Air Nomads
The Air Nomads' use of Airbending extends to transportation. Without any outside means of transportation, Air Nomads can run great distances at great speeds. However, for longer journeys or for some applications, the Air Nomads make use of Flying Bison and Gliders.

List of Transportation Methods

 * Flying Bison - This was the primary long-range transportation used by Air Nomads. Flying Bison use Airbending to fly, and are probably the fastest means of transportation in the world.
 * Gliders - Air Nomads possessed staffs to aid their bending. They opened their staffs into gliders to fly.

Water Tribe
The people of the Water Tribe always live around water. Thus, their methods of transportation are mostly water based, with a small variety of boats and larger ships used.

List of Transportation Methods

 * Cutter Sailing Ships - They are used by Southern Water Tribe warriors as transport ships for their small force of warriors.
 * Catamarans - Catamarans are used by the Northern Water Tribe as the primary means of seaborne transport.
 * Barges - These smaller boats are commonly used for transport around the Northern Water Tribe.
 * Boat - The Foggy Swamp Tribe uses these small craft for travelling around the Swamp.
 * Buffalo-yak - These animals are used by the Northern Water Tribe.

Earth Kingdom
The Earth Kingdom is vast and thus has a large variety of transportation for every need.
