Not really a theocracy, seeing as there doesn't appear to be a divine guidance of any sort. If we knew more about how the senate was selected, we might be justified in calling it a democracy, but I get the impression that the Air Nomads don't really have much of a formalised government as the phrase "Theocratic Senate" might suggest. The appellation "nomad" would seem to support this view. Technically speaking, it should be called an ecclesiocracy, particularly given the modern implications of Theocracy
