== History ==
Following the death of Avatar Kuruk in 312 BG, King Buro of Omashu took part in the search for the next Avatar. 
In the later life of Avatar Kyoshi, she supported the family of Guo Xun as she took the throne with the sacred duty to protect Omashu. When she became queen, Guo Xun wholeheartedly embraced the political structure the Avatar helped create. She despised Earth King Jialun, thinking him to be cheap, selfish, and insecure in his power. She embroiled her city and its diplomats in enough conflict not to spark an all-out war with Ba Sing Se, and often spied on others in the Earth Kingdom and had technologies smuggled for her. She was considered a graceful and benevolent queen by her people.Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Game. Core Book, Version 1.0, 2022, p. 54.
King Bumi held the kingship until late 99 AG, when the monarchy was temporarily replaced with a Fire Nation governorship following the city's capture. Bumi single-handedly ended the Fire Nation's control over the city during the Day of Black Sun and reinstated his position as king.
