Welcome To Republic City May 2026

"Welcome to Republic City" is both the series premiere of The Legend of Korra and the name of the sprawling, steampunk-inspired metropolis that serves as the show's primary setting. Founded by Avatar Aang and Fire Lord Zuko after the Hundred Year War, it was designed as a sanctuary where benders and non-benders from all four nations could coexist in harmony.

Republic City grew from the ashes of the Fire Nation colony . Following the war, Aang and Zuko faced the challenge of what to do with established multicultural colonies in the Earth Kingdom. Rather than forcing citizens to relocate, they established the United Republic of Nations as a sovereign fifth nation, with Republic City as its capital.
