I think it's a mixture of China and India. For example, they write "Fire Nation" in Chinese, but when translated, it literally means "Agni", which is the Hindu god of fire. Plus, they have Indian and Chinese features, and their honor and "respect" system is roughy based on Indian and Chinese custom.

But yeah, they're all sort of a mix of Indian, Chinese, and Japanese. And they're located on the equator, so that just adds to it.
