The Fire Nation
The Fire Nation, in the west, is the nation under the element of Fire. It is ruled by Fire Lord Ozai. The position of Fire Lord is passed down in a paternal line and one hundred years ago, Fire Lord Sousen used a coment to increase their power and invaded the other lands.
The Fire Nation culture is very military. Lives are ordered and regimented. Marriages are arraigned. And any man with bending talent is trained to join the army. The food is hot, and the culture is a cross between Ming China and Shogun Japan. Children here are taught to love the Fire Lord as their father.
The Fire Nation is very status conscious and the subject of honor is one taken very seriously. A duel of honor is done between two men by engaging in Agni Kai, a fire duel. These take place at Sunrise or Sunset, and the winner has the right to scar the loser, or even kill the loser if they chose.
Fire Nation celebrations often involve fire works, and the Dragon is an important symbol to their culture.
