The world of Avatar’s horizon is not markedly more curved than ours, so it’s unlikely their globe is much smaller.Īnd more importantly, they never go around the other side. However, this would be visible both in the effects on physics, and in the curvature of the earth. They could be on a much smaller globe than Earth. Someone smarter than me could probably math out how fast Appa flies from watching the flying-the-blockade sequence, but the important thing to note is that it’s incredible that they made it from the bottom of the map to the top of the map in as little time as they did.

They are traveling primarily on the back of a flying bison, which can be presumed to travel at a reasonable clip but not airplane speeds. Zuko takes Katara on a field trip to a Southern Raiders ship in the south seas, to a village on the southern edge of the Fire Nation, and then back up to the Western Air Temple.Īs you can see from the map, the Gaang travels a lot.

Both are islands near the Western Air Temple. From the Western Air Temple, Zuko takes Aang on a field trip to the Sun Warriors Temple and Sokka on a field trip to the Boiling Rock. Book 3 then jogs up to the Western Air Temple and then back down to Ember Island. Sokka leaves Ba Sing Se for Chameleon Bay, following the same path Aang took.īook 3 leaves Ba Sing Se towards the fire nation along waterways, crosses through the serpent’s pass lake, then bounces along the Fire Nation islands to the Fire Nation capital. Toph leaves Ba Sing Se and then loops back around. Aang diverges from Ba Sing Se to the Eastern Air Temple on one of the islands along the bottom of the map. The landmasses are a large continent of the Earth Kindom on the right, a smaller landmass of the Fire Nation on the left with a trail of islands pointing towards the Earth Kingdom, a string of islands arcing around the lower half of the map under the continent, a few large islands in the top left corner where the Western Air Temple is, and icy landmasses at the top and bottom where the Northern and Southern Water Tribes are.īook 1 zigzags relatively vertically from the Southern Water Tribe to the Northern Water Tribe.īook 2 heads directly down the continent from the Southern Water Tribe, then around the bottom, across the desert, across the lake at the serpent’s pass, and arcs up to Ba Sing Se. The lines are color-coded by book, with dotted lines color coded to specific characters when their travels diverge. [ID: A map of the world of Avatar, with the Avatar’s travels traced out.
