...dude- Toph is Henry Ford! Can I just say I love that Toph is bringing the principles of the Industrial Revolution from the Fire Nation to the Earth Kingdoms? Though given the fact that the massive economic gap brought about (in part) by the Industrial Revolution- was one of the main motivators behind marxism in industrial Europe, and the evident stratified social system evident in the EK is very reminiscent if pre-mao China- I've now got a brainworm where after the war Ba Sing Se turns into the People's Republic of Ba Sing Se or something such like- especially if we consider the fact that Kuei doesn't really come off as the most politically astute bulb in the box.
Thank you so much this is an incredible drabble :D
