History

After the end of The Great War, Avatar Gan convinced the people of the Fire Nation to reform its culture and become more peaceful. The peoples of the Fire Isles listened, and reorganized themselves into an Imperial Republic. The republic has become remarkably more peaceful than any other period in Fire Nation history.
Within the Republic, there are two philosophies essentially at war. The most predominant philosophy among the citizens of the Repulic is one of scholarship, learning, and wisdom. (These people would eventually become the fire sages). The warring philosophy is one of imperialism and military might. However, most people of the second philosophy do not want to openly start a war, but instead want their military to be more of a nationalistic symbol.
In recent years, technological improvement is starting to become heavily focused on military improvement to the displeasure of the scholars and learned.

The Air Nation in the time of PotL arose from immigrants from the Fire Nation. Differences in ideology about violence and warfare led to their split. The Air Nation still disapproves of the Fire Nation's more militarized society, but are willing to trade with them for survival. In fact, the Air Nation's number one trade partner is the Fire Nation.
