    I say something influenced him to use the power of that comet. Like say...a spiritual something...an evil spiritual something...that wants to drive the world in chaos so it'll be suitable for it's return. Which is also my working theory on the real reason the Avatar exists
    *coughdarkavatarfancough* Ever think this is maybe just human nature? Over the course of our history people have tried numerous times to conquer others. Humans are very a very greedy, evil race. It's what we do.

    I can think outside the box if I want. and no the "spiritual" thing I'm talkin' about??isn't the Dark Avatar...

    Maybe his wife was nagging him at home

    Sozins Wife: All you do is sit around and rule the Fire Nation. Blah blah blah

    Sozin: That's it, I conquering the world!

    I just thought about this but what if Sozin was a figurehead? Or the FN starting the war is a lie?

    dats a good theory but im not sure bout it. i think some people are just??messed up??in the head and are just bent on world domination. or maybe sozin just wants to be remembered in fire nation history like Zhao (Siege of the north, kept talking bout it, Zhao da great, zhao da moonslayer, zhao the invincible - sound familiar??), so if the fire nation ends up winning da war, all the credit will go to sozin cause he started it and sozin might be praised as the best and most powerful firelord in the history and line of all the firelords.

    good thinking. i never thought of that!

    I've had a theroy for a while.

    I think Sozin started out a pretty good guy. If Azulon was fire lord for 23 years, and Oazi has been now for 4 years, that means Sozin was on throne for a minimum of 73 years! That's along time.

    I see him taking tthe throne early 20's or even teens. He would have lived just after Chin the Conqueror as meninwhite said. He probaly would have war sicken.

    I think he dreamed of a world with no division, as the Guru said. He wanted all the world under one flag and in peace.

    I see him as a diplomat at 1st, but the arrogance of the world, namely the Air Nomads who are determined to live by themselfs and stay devided from the rest of the world, drove him to anger.

    We never found out how long the Air-Benders fought. I see it as a long struggle, years in fact. A war of just fire and air. However nothing serious. 'A cold war'. With lots of independant attacks and threats.

    Comes that comet. Sozin in his wraith uses it to wipe out all Air-Nomads. Realizing the strengh of action over words, Sozin decieds the only way to unite the world, is to conquer it.

    Begins the war.

    Just a theroy right?

    I hope that's not true at all even though the show makes it look that way. We need something much more original and interesting.
