Talk:History of the World of Avatar/@comment-3336954-20110119013733

By my best guess, Aang died in the year 151 ASC, 163 years after he was born, and at the age of about 63, depending on the time of year he was borna nd died. This has been based off of the following assumptions: 1) Korra was born the customary 1 week following the death of the previous Avatar. 2) Korra was informed of her being the Avatar at the traditional age of 16. 3) Like Roku, she need no extra training in her native element (Waterbending) after the announcement. 4) Like Roku, it took Korra an average of four years to master the subsequent bending disciplines. 5) At the time of the beginning of The Ledgend of Korra, she has not started, or has just begun to start, her Airbending training. Given those 5 assumptions, Korra is 24 during the year 175 ASC. After that, it is simple subraction to reach Aang's age.
