    well you would need more people, you can't do much with 30 people.


    well, you can't forget that after the Fire Nation ruined the Southern Water Tribe, the place broke up into small villages that were able to hide under Fire Nation radars until Aang sent a signal. So there are more villages than just the one Katara and Sokka are. They just fear roaming out of place too far, because the Fire Nation is on the prowl across the s seas, trying to destroy all Waterbenders in the South Pole, thanks to the Southern Raiders.
    so what like 100 people? that still isn't enough. and remember They took all the waterbenders as well so its kinda hard to re-build. and there won't be any children for awhile, because, between the old generation of parents and the new generation of like 5 year olds, the only girl was katara and she is traveling the world. she problebty won't come back to settle down (with aang)

    i forgive you this time, but don't go around doing it. some aren't as nice as me...anyway, The Southern Water Tribe'll be perfect if I would've governed it. Too bad, it's a cartoon show.

    i would never message-bend on purpose. i was once suspended because some one changed my post . the only thing i was trying to say is that the southern water tribe has the most to re-build.

    although i agree, i believe since there is so much and since the villages were able to evade Fire Nation radars, the villages could act as hideouts. They could be outposts, where I execute maneuvers against attacks.

    I would want the Earth Kingdom to rule above all. With earthbending you can effectively attack and defend, and eith it's variations you can mimic other bending styles. Additionally, earth is everywhere so you can quickly build cities and stuff. Also I like things such as the delivery system in Omashu.

    After that I would say Northern Water Tribe becaus it's so bug and cool.

    Yes your right. Earth benders could also use their powers to raise land masses, islands, continents etc. underneath vast oceans thus "legally" expanding its territories. And they don't have to worry about global warming. If the North and south poles melt then they could just raise the continent to counter the rising ocean level.

    I would rule the Earth Kingdom because of their strength. As Zuko said, the Earth Kingdom people can endure anything, and I find that appealing. I like their outlook on life and their sense of family. Also, Ba Sing Sei is a very interesting idea to me. It reminds me of The Giver. All around, the attitude of the Earth Kingdom attracts me, so that's the one I would rule. With a plain, old, regular bear at my side, of course.

    No. The Arctic is basically completely ice. You're thinking of places like Canada. Since the Water Tribes and their habitat seems to resemble places like Antarctica, we can safely assume that it is all frozen ice.

    Well, at the end on seige of the north, the northern waterbenders went to their sister tribe (southern water tribe) to help rebuild.... Maybe theymeant the population as well. Katara would make an excellent leader/cheif... But i would be better LoL!!!
