Fire Nation

## Queens

Solis

**The Fire Nation** was a colony of aggressive and lethal Red Tropical Fire Ants (*Solenopsis Geminata*). The colony was always dependent on its one queen, as if she dies, there would be no one to lay eggs and the population would eventually fizzle out. The colony cannot reinvent nor create a new egg-laying queen to take over. Fire Ant queens have been known to live up to 30 years in captivity, and the average worker lives about 1-2 months.

They are a member of the Five Kingdoms.

The Fire Nation was shown to be a aggressive colony that will sting at all prey that end up on their territory.

## History

The Fire Nation was founded sometime before 2013 by a single pregnant Queen ant.The colony came into Mikey Bustos' possession in October 2013, by which point it had already amassed several thousand workers. They were first featured in video released Oct 6th 2013 titled "Moving a Mature Ant Colony Into an AntsCanada Omni Nest."
By 2016, the colony was housed in small Hybrid Nests, but soon expanded their territory with the addition of AC Outworlds, eventually becoming a huge network of tubes and units.

The Fire Nation was capable of easily overcoming simulated floods. However, this will prove to be their unexpected demise as the colony is now dealing with a major crisis to survive and adopt inside their new terrarium, Selva de fuego. Following a week. They finally manage to adapt well as the colony flourish in every way. Until, they decided to try to escape again from the terrarium. A countermeasure of introducing a predator about to be established in April 2018. However, it didn't work and the spiders fall to their deaths at the soil of the Paludarium and get consumed by the colony. Until, a silk from Mikeys pet Goliath Tarantula. That is preventing this from ever occurring again.

Goliath Tarantula which silk is keeping Fire Nation in it's terrarium has been feed to them when she passed away.

In November 2019, Solis died, presumably of old age, which lead to Fire Nation's downfall and demise together with an attack of blood-sucking mites. Luckily, they were replaced with the 12 week old Phoenix Empire.
