Southern Water Tribe Cultural Center

The Southern Water Tribe Cultural Center was a building in Republic City. It hosted cultural activities related to the culture of the Southern Water Tribe.

History
During the Water Tribe Civil War, Southern Water Tribe citizens organized a peace march in favor of southern independence towards the cultural center, with a counter-protest organized by Northerners in support of Chief Unalaq. Despite a heavy police presence, at the climax of the march two unknown men orchestrated a terrorist bombing of the center, destroying it. Mako, on duty as a police officer, attempted to capture the perpetrators but they managed to escape, with mako only successfully retrieving the detonator device.

The bombing was immediately blamed by Korra on members of the Northern Water Tribe, though Mako was skeptical. Later, he managed to identify them as members of the Agni Kai Triad.
