Air Nation

The Air Nation is one of the six world nations. It was presumably created at some point after 0 AG, although it is possible that it existed in merely secrecy as airbenders traveled from it and into other parts of the world. The nation's land spans across a massive, crescent shaped island known for its marshy and swampy terrain, as well as its unique combination of lumbering, monumental mountains along with this. It is led by a single Air Elder, and a council of other elders. Economically, the nation has a history of being in constant decline and poverty.

Hidden from the other four known nations for hundreds of years, the continent was only discovered when a Fire Nation fleet decided to venture westward from their mother nation to launch a surprise raid on the Earth Kingdom. The fleet landed on the continent, and news quickly spread once the men of the Fire Nation notified officials. This led to an attempt by the existing nations to conquer the territory, but eventually it culminated in the Air Nation pushing the resistance out.
