You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 75.101.128.0/17 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:39, 2 October 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

"'''Welcome to Republic City'''" is the first episode of the [[Nickelodeon]] series ''[[The Legend of Korra]]''. The series premiered online on March 24, 2012 and on Nickelodeon on April 14, 2012, as a special movie sequel to the original series, ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]''.

The setting of the second series has changed dramatically from the first series. Most events take place in a city known as Republic City, which is a "[[steampunk]]" style city. Most notably, the access to electricity in the new series substantiates the passing of time between the two series.<ref name="pressrelease">((cite web|url=http://biz.viacom.com/sites/nickelodeonpress/NICKELODEON/Pages/showpdf.aspx?FileName=TheLegendofKorra%20FINAL.pdf&ItemID=625&ListName=Press%20Releases|title=Nick Press The Legend of Korra press release|date=March 15, 2012|access-date=March 20, 2012|publisher=Viacom|work=Nick Press|format=PDF|location=Burbank, California|quote=In the premiere episode, "Welcome to Republic City,"...

==Plot==
57 years after the end of the Hundred Year War (as depicted in "[[Sozin's Comet]]"), three members of the White Lotus respond to claims from the Southern Water Tribe of a child as the Avatar by meeting 4-year-old [[Korra]], the reincarnation of [[Aang]] who is already capable of bending water, earth, and fire.<ref name=IGN>((cite web|last1=Nicholson|first1=Max|title=The Legend of Korra: "Welcome to Republic City" Review|url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/03/23/the-legend-of-korra-welcome-to-republic-city-review|publisher=IGN|access-date=6 November 2014|archive-date=November 6, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141106065701/http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/03/23/the-legend-of-korra-welcome-to-republic-city-review|url-status=live))</ref>

13 years later, a now 17-year-old Korra has conquered the art and skill of waterbending, earthbending, and firebending in the Fortress—a place meant to teach the Avatar the elements away from harm—but has yet to learn airbending. Her waterbending master, [[Katara (Avatar: The Last Airbender)|Katara]], who is now an old woman (with three grown children fathered by the deceased Avatar Aang), lets Korra go to Republic City after Katara's youngest son [[Tenzin (The Legend of Korra)|Tenzin]] is not able to teach Korra airbending at the fortress (due to being a member of the council of the United Republic) and seeing Korra frustrated by her isolation. Korra travels with her Polar bear dog, Naga, to Republic City, where she gets into a fight with a group of men who were going to rob an old man in the city. After being arrested for the resulting collateral damage, she meets Chief [[Lin Beifong]], [[Toph Beifong|Toph]]'s daughter, who is unhappy at Korra's arrival seeing it as a danger to the city. However, Tenzin bails her out of jail, preparing to send her back to the South Pole until he realizes that the Avatar is a vital part of the idea of Republic City, thus allowing her to stay and train in airbending. Meanwhile, Amon, leader of an anti-bender equalist group, learns of Korra's arrival, and tells his followers that he will have to accelerate his plans.
