    Fire Nation
    Advantage - Most techonologically advanced nation in the Avatar world. Not much is known of the Fire nation. Most [not all] of the citizens feel extreme nationlism for their nation and loyalty to the Fire Lord.
    Disadvantage - Not much in known about the Fire Nation. The nation's many volcanoes may erupt and destroy your homes. If you're not a native or you're not a firebender, you could be thrown in prison or even killed. The citizens are also under the tyrannical rule of the Fire Lord. All-red clothing and buildings.

    North Pole
    Advantage - You will experience a strong sense of community. If injured/sick, powerful healers are ready to fix you. Incredibly beautiful scenery/architecture with Venice,Italy - style transportation. There's an area with a strong connection to the moon and ocean spirit. Currently, women can now learn waterbending for fighting.
    Disadvantage- May experience gender inequality. Labor is divided by gender. Arranged marriages can be a problem. Freezing cold temperatures. All-blue buildings and clothing.

    South Pole

    Advantage - You will experience a strong sense of community. In a rebuilding process with the help of some Northern water tribe people. Not that much gender inequality as compared to the North Pole.

    Disadvantage- Population dwindling to brink of extinction. All-blue buildings and clothing.

    Ba Sing Se
    Advantage - Last stronghold in the Earth Kingdom against the Fire Nation. Reliable system of transportation. Lots of farm land for food
    Disadvantage - No Fire Nation soldiers to harass you, BUT people separated by social class. People live in fear of the Dai Li. Free speech is suppressed. Brainwashing is a problem. Mostly all-green clothing

    The rest of the Earth Kingdom
    Advantage - Diverse animals. Lots of beautiful places and scenery. Diverse environments and climates. You may be safe from an invasion depending on where you are
    Disadvantage - You either are in Fire Nation occupied territory or you constantly live in fear of a Fire Nation invasion. Fire Nation may/can be abusive of their occupied territories. Earth kingdom has incompetent/crazy generals and/or abusive soldiers. Mostly all-green clothing

    Air Temples

    Advantage - Lots of history about the Air Nomads. You may find other refugees.
    Disadvantage
    - You either are in Fire Nation occupied territory or you constantly live in fear of a Fire Nation invasion. Some of temples are empty.

    XD cracked my up on the "Clothing color" disadvantages.

    Anywho, I'd pick Fire Nation. I have fire in my soul, and fire entices me. Plus, I like red. >=D

    Um, the Fire Nation is not neccesarily the most powerful nation. and definitely not all people who live in the FN are very happy with the war. for example, the FN army may force FN citizens to fight in the war. also, what's wrong with having all blue or red buildings and clothing?

    back on topic, since no place in this world, or the avatar world, is perfect, i'd choose to live on an island away from the war, like Kyoshi Island.

    The Fire Nation probably is the most powerful nation; if they weren't, they wouldn't be stupid enough to take on the other three nations by themselves. And yeah, the Fire Nation probably forces its citizens to fight in their military, just like in Nazi Germany.

    the only reason they started the war was because they got a power boost from Sozin's comet

    This should give you a idea.


    The reason why I would live there is it is close to the equator so the weather would be hot maybe even tropical, also those islands might be really nice looking.

    True, but they've continued the war for quite a while now.

    True. They used the comet one hundred years ago to start the war with a powerful first strike. But, then after that, they started to develope advance techonologies such as those tanks, and soon to be battle balloon.(I wonder if we'll ever see those on fire nation battlefields soon? I mean, it's been one season since we've seen it...wonder where it is now?)

    actually, the FN themselves didn't develop the balloon, it was the Mechanist, Teo's father.

    I know...but I do wonder where it's been all this time? Surely we would've seen them on the battlefield yet, right?

    The German Army was volunteer until the end, IE when the Soviets where in Germany and you had to defend your self because the Russians where going to do bad things to you. Matter of fact there was a old German saying in WW2 near the end. ???When fighting the Americans/British/Allies use all the bullets in your gun then surrender. When fighting Soviets use every bullet in your gun but one and use it on your self.??? but that is for a later day.

    i think they're duplicating them so they have a whole fleet, like that huge fleet of ships during the "Seige of the North". I don't know where the FN's keeping them, though.

    Oh, that'd be so cool. We've seen land fleets of tanks, many battle ships...but I always wanted to se a massive air fleet in the sky. This'll be sweet! Go Fire Nation!
