There are a lot of assholish nations that could easily take that place, but imo there are enough references to Dalai lama in the show to assume that the fire nation is china

The Dalai Lama references are from the Air Nomads, not Fire Nation

That’s because the air nomads are basically Tibetan monks, also annexed by China in the 1950s
