![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Northern Water Tribe Once surrounded by high walls of thick ice, now a growing industrial city on the edge of the planet's northern ice caps. Over time, the surrounding ice have turned a little murky and thinner due to the extensive smokestack exploits of its inhabitants.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Southern Water Tribe The city that was wrecked centuries ago has already been rebuilt; although villages still exist outside it. Like the Northern Water Tribe City, it has started to be industrialized. And since its environment is more hospitable than its northern sister tribe, it now holds custody of the moon and ocean spirits.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Foggy Swamp Tribe One of the few places untouched by the spike of the industrial revolution. Perhaps because it is heavily guarded by the spirits that inhabit the swamp. Over the centuries, nothing has changed with its tribesmen, except for their use of better garments.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Ba Sing Se (2 sub-boards) Many years after the war, Ba Sing Se decided to bring down its greater outer walls for further expansion. As the capital of the Earth Kingdom, it is one of the most progressive industrial cities in the world; although the social stratification still exists. Also, because of their desire for growth, they have covered a large portion of Lake Laogai with earth to have more land area.

Being a maze of massive rock structures and narrow passages unreachable to most of the aggressive fauna, by foot is the way to go.

As such, it used to be avoided by most travelers due to its inhospitable conditions. But since the Misty Palms Oasis has started to be developed into a city, the traveler traffic has turned busy.

It remains as an industrial city. Although lately, they have focused their specialty to weapon-making, while its central districts cater to fun-seekers who love gambling.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Shu Jing One of the many places untouched by the industrial trend. It stayed as it is since centuries ago--situated on a cliff above a river and a waterfall, surrounded by mountains and lush green forests, and secluded in a slice of most-wanted peace. This is why most nature-lovers migrate to this town.

It is said that it won't be long until it wakes up from its slumber.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Sun Warrior City During the reign of Fire Lord Zuko, the city was restored and the dragons have finally been protected by Fire Nation laws. And like the oasis of the Water Tribe, they still keep the Eternal Flame safe and a good source of bending 'drive' to the weakened. Little by little, its inhabitants accept technology into their lives although as far as their practices are concerned, they still stick to the ancient tradition.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Northern Air Temple The highest city in the world. Geographically, the smallest air Nomad territory, but the largest in terms of population being the seat of the industrial revolution and the city of the Legendary Mechanist. Also, although called an air temple, there are no monks or nuns that live here; only the non-traditional Air Nomads.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Eastern Air Temple Like the Southern Air Temple, the solitary Air Nomad way of life is still practiced here, as propagated by the nuns running it. Lately, it has become one of the most difficult temple to find because its surrounding air space has been covered with very thick clouds, and for some reason, only Air Nomad nuns and monks are able to reach it without getting lost. Rumors say it's guarded by a sky spirit that wards off strangers.

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Southern Air Temple As the birthplace of Avatar Aang, this temple that is run by monks continued the traditional way of life of Air Nomads. Although settlements in the lands around it have already been influenced by technology, the temple itself remains pure, free from the industrial trend; because they wanted to prepare for the "worst".

![[ ]](http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j325/tarnishedcycles/ICONS/off.png) | Western Air Temple Situated beneath a cliff. It is one of the two temples that fully embraced industrialization. Just like the Northern Air Temple, it is inhabited by non-traditional Air Nomads. It is known to be the best manufacturers and providers of aircraft, both animal-drawn and purely mechanical.
