The Avatar World has an extensive history dating many thousands of years.

Avatar的世界有着悠久的历史，可追溯到成千上万年以前。

The Avatar World history can roughly be divided into two eras. The first great era was the Era before the Avatar, where its people utilized Energybending to bend the energy within themselves. Eventually people discovered the four elemental bending arts and split into four nations, and over time knowledge of Energybending was almost completely lost.

Avatar世界历史大致可以分为两个时代。第一个大时代，是Avatar出现前，那是一个人们利用Energybending从控制自身能量的时代。后来人们发现了四种元素的御术，世界分裂为4个民族，随着时间的过去，Energybending几乎完全丧失。

The Avatar appeared in the world to keep peace and balance between the nations, beginning the second era, the Avatar Era. The current Avatar Era has lasted for thousands of years, and there have been over a thousand incarnations of the Avatar. One of the most notable events of the Avatar Era has been The War, a worldwide conflict which lasted for a century.

随着Avatar出现在维持世界和平和各国之间的平衡，世界开始第二个时期，Avatar的时代。目前的Avatar时代已经持续了成千上万年，已经有上千名Avatar出现。Avatar时代最引人注目的事件之一，就是那场战争，那场世界范围持续了一个世纪的冲突

Before War (Unknown - 1 BSC)
2.1战前（未知年代- 1 BSC）

Era before the Avatar
前神通时代

People bend the energy within themselves rather than the four elements.
开始时人们对自身的能量而不是四大元素使用御术。

The four elemental bending arts are discovered, and the people split into Four Nations, divided by the elements. The Air Nomads learn Airbending from the Flying Bison, the Fire Nation learns Firebending from the Dragons, the Earth Kingdom learns Earthbending from the Badgermoles, and the Water Tribes learn Waterbending by observing the pull of the Moon on the tides. Tui and La assume mortal forms as Koi Fish.
后来四大元素的御术被发现，于是人们分成了四个国家。
气和民族从飞行野牛身上学会御气术，火烈民族从龙身上学会御火术，土强王国从獾鼹学会 御土术，水善部落通过观察月球推拉潮汐学会御水术。
月神和水神推和拉在世间的形态是锦鲤。

Oma and Shu become the first Earthbenders, earning the bending art from Badgermoles, and using their earthbending to find each other in dark tunnels.
奥玛和舒从獾鼹学会御土术，成为最初的土宗，利用其御土术在漆黑的隧道中找到彼此

Unknown date before 312 BSC
312BSC以前的某个未知日期

Avatar Yangchen of the Air Nomads is born in the Western Air Temple, after the death of her predecessor. Her reign as Avatar is a peaceful one, due to her fierce dedication to keeping balance and serving the world. She eventually dies. Avatar Kuruk of the Water Tribe is born in the Northern Water Tribe.
在她前任的神通死亡之后，神通 Yangchen出生在西气和寺。她作为神通的统治时期是和平的，因为她激烈致力于保持平衡和服务于世界。后来她死了。水族神通 Kuruk出生在北水善部落。

Avatar Kuruk tries to kill Koh, the Face Stealer, as revenge for stealing the face of his wife Ummi. This event is confusing to place chronologically, as if Koh's description of the event is taken literally, it would have happened c. 800-700 BSC, over three hundred years before Kuruk's death. Being as Kyoshi was the oldest Avatar at two hundred thirty years of age at death, it is possible that Koh's sense of timing is off, or that time runs differently in the Spirit World.
神通 Kuruk试图杀死偷脸者Koh，为窃取他的妻子Ummi的脸报仇。这个事件的时间顺序有混乱的地方，从字面上看Koh的描述，它发生在800-700BSC左右， 在Kuruk去世之前超过三百年。但是神通Kyoshi 是寿命最长的神通，去世时230岁。有可能Koh没有时间流逝的感觉，或者在精神世界时间流逝的速度不同。
