I always hear people claim what nation is based on what, but the only confirmed one I've heard was the Water Tribes. It appeared like everyone just filled in the blanks of what the other nations represent in the real world. I've heard that the Fire Nation while having the most of Japanese culture used Chinese names or something by those means. Now I am wondering if it has ever been stated what nations were based on what or if the Water Tribes were the only nation stated to be of a certain race. There is an advantage to not revealing this I suppose, because it gives you more liberties to do what you wish with your own fantasy world so you could have influences from other nations such as Russia such as the dance Aang and Katara did in The Headband and adding Aztec culture at the very end of it all because of one creator's possible fetish for it. Geography doesn't really matter in this sort, but I know Bryan confirmed the Fire Nation mainland to be Iceland.

I always believed The Earth Kingdom to be China, the Air Nomands to be something that resembled Buddhists, and the Water Tribes to be Inuit.
