I conclude the moon has a vaj
Well duh, Sokka was trying to get all up in it
I just finished TLA. I'd never seen it, and now I have, and it's gone, and my life feels empty. Why would you bring this up? Why would you hurt me so?
Korra is good, but it doesn't hit the same, and 70 years is not enough to fully industrialize a society.
Russia, China
Also, I imagine industry in general becomes significantly easier when you have people that can summon construction projects out of the ground or weld with their bare hands.
Also, society isn't industrialised. One city state within society is industrialised.
Also, the fire nation was already undergoing industrialisation at the time of ATLA.
Seriously, the Fire Nation had mass produced internal combustion engines in ATLA. They put them in their mass produced tanks. Not to mention the fleet of ships with smokestacks indicating they probably had either diesel or steam powered ships. The Earth Kingdom and Water Tribes are both still in the process of industrializing, but the Fire Nation was already pretty much there, and the United Republic is primarily a Fire Nation breakaway state.
More than likely steam. Don’t need fuel to burn when when you can just make fire with magic. And we know people get employed for their bending ability since Mako got a job lightning-bending at the power plant.
It's not magic, it's fire bending.
