Where in the US would they live? I'm thinking... Katara and Sokka- Definately Alaska Zuko, Azula, Mai, Ty Lee, Ozai, and Iroh- Arizona or California Aang- One of the mountain states or Chicago (since it's the Windy city. ) What do you think?

Hmmm... I think that the question would be "where in the world would they live?" It seems awfully limiting to just note the US. I could see Ty Lee in California, definately. She has the personality for it. Azula and Mai are a different story, though. More than likely they would be in Texas, in a Catholic school, being fed propaganda! I could see Aang anywhere where no people are. Chicago would be a no-no. It would just contradict his beliefs. I think that perhaps he would be better off in a mountain range, where he and the other monks would be able to continue their uninterrupted, material-less existance. Katara and Sokka would probably be in Alaska... Zuko is a hard one... in real life terms, he'd probably be the kid who was taken away from his father due to abuse. Chances are, he'd lead the life of traveling that he does in the series. There's just too much to his character that has been built upon the dangers on the road. Hmm... Toph would probably be somewhere landlocked, but rich. Maybe she'd be the daughter of someone famous, like Bill Gates? Tsuki could possibly belong to an all girls school, likely in the middle of nowhere!

Interesting, but why the US? I agree with the above poster. What about the rest of the world? (Not everyone lives in the US here.) .... If the characters were real in the world... Aang - defnitely be somewhere in a mountain region temple like Tibet. Sokka and Katara - Yukon or indigenous parts of Alaska. Iroh and Zuko - outcasts/fugitives of a country that is abusing imperialism. So, they can pretty much be in any country that understands imperialisim is wrong. And in that country, they'd be running a successful tea shop. Azula - an asylum for the mentally sick. Zhao - will still be and will always be in some kind of military position for power. Ty Lee - Cirque Du Soleil Mai - will be living in a rich spoiled millionaire home and will be bored to death. Cabbage Man - will try to sell his cabbages in the night markets in Vietnam, Malayasia, and Taiwan before going cross continent. Foaming Mouth Guy - will try to get into Vietnam without the Chinese government's approval in order to meet with Aang. (And unfortunately, he keeps getting caught and exported.) Toph - will leave the life of being a wealthy unhappy daughter to persue travelling/backpacking around the world all by herself. Edit: Adding more. (Mwahaha..) Suki - definitely an all girls' boarding school. Either that or she'll work for the samurai theme park in Japan. >_> Yue - Greenland or Switzerland. The guy who lives in Ember Island whose party got crashed by the royal family - he would definitely still be living in some kind of beach house. Ember Island Players - name your local theater troupe and ta-dah.

If I likened each nation to a RL nation then: FN - Great Britain because small has/had an empire has the best amy and navy in terms of terrain wise I'd FN is more like NZ or Japan but politically like GB ... Earth Kingdom - USA because large has a lot of resources different landscapes Water tribe - Greenland/ Iceland somewhere like that eskimo type place Air Nomads - China or Tibet Me and Ozai wud totally invade Buckingham palace, get rid of that num nuts Brown and then we'd rule the GB Empire....

I think Aang would enjoy living in a big city so that he could jump off of the skyscrapers.

Roll back time, and I see Zuko living in a former Soviet Union country. I see young men from that region of the world having a bunch of angst about their honor. Katara and Sokka could be South Americans, Canadians, and Alaskans. Earth Kingdom would be Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. And the Air Nomads would be Asia, (for philosophy reasons).

If you are going by a climate thing:
Katara and Sokka: One of hte poles Aang: anywhere? Maybe he's good for somewhere like California or Florida. Toph: The Rocky Mountains, or in Penna. There's lots of mountains in PA, lots of earth to bend. Weather would be about the same as her home in the show, I'm guessing! Zuko: Tropical, Brazil, Columbia, Japan. Somewhere hot and remote, since he's kinda anti-social, alough he is getting better.
If you want by politcal and whatnot; not your girl. I got nothing for that!

All I know is that Iroh belongs in China, where all the teas are.
Or Britain. Maybe he'll take a fancy to them milk teas?

Perhaps use countries???
Earth: Africa since it's the most enriched enviroment with some of the worlds only clean water sources Fire: Germany, since most of the text sems total dictatorship, and some reason "discipline" Air: Perhaps New Zeland, its the most remote area of the world that isnt travelled frequently Water: We have Antartica and the Northern Territory. That one is easy, since the Avatar world and our world are quite similar.
Both have an axis with two polar caps. Has something as a equator, however in Avatar the equator is centered around the fire nation. We've seen snow, rain, and other natural consistancies such as Aang making a tornado, and mentioning that he wished he could create a hurricane. I'm surprised they haven't added an earthquake to it, but it isn't over so that isnt out of the loop.
The only difference I see is the ability to bend. The moon is technically our waterbender, for it "pushes and pulls" tides every day, in every lunar cycle. There are bager moles, and they do seem to shift earth quite easily. Dragons are now a myth, if they did exist, that be interesting. We have bison, but not air bisons. Eriee that bisons do have 5 stomachs and are quite huge. Possibly a myth that they could fly, but not really any proff.

I'd be afraid if the avatar characters were real, I mean, Fire Lord Ozai...Jun...Combustion Man. SO many horrible, powered people.

Toph- The Rocky Mountains Katara, Sokka, and Hakoda- Antarctica or Northern Canada Aang- New York. I see him as a people person. Azula- With Al Queda somewhere o__O;; Ty Lee- With the Big Apple circus Mai- China. I'm not sure why, but it seems right. Haru- Mexico. *has watched "ATLA: the Abridged Series" too much* xD Ozai- Ruling Iran Zuko- My bed I'm not sure, but wherever I try and picture him he is really angry xD
