== History==
=== Early History===
Before the Hundred Year War, the Southern Water Tribe were culturally known for their waterbender style fighting.
===Hundred Year War===
Fire Lord Azulon ordered the elimination of the Waterbenders in the South. As raids continued the Waterbenders were all killed.
Even though the South was virtually defeated, the raids continued by the Southern Raiders, who attacked the minor tribe of Chieftain Hakoda in 94 AG; they had been informed that one waterbender remained in the Southern Water Tribe and were subsequently assigned to eliminate that person. One of the Southern Raiders followed Katara and Kya, who ordered her daughter to hide. After Kya lied she was the last Waterbender, The soldier from the Fire Nation murdered their mother right in front of them after mistaking her for being a waterbender. Sokka was initially unaware of his mother's death until he found Katara.
Two years prior to the serued, Hakoda left the South Pole with his allies, with his children Sokka and Katara left in the care of his mother Kanna. Sokka grew up too fast in the war due to getting pressured by his father and took his responsibilities as the clans protector seriously.
