It rises high out of a deep chasm and was created by earthbenders several centuries prior to King Bumi's reign. The tall mountain peak on which Omashu was founded is located in the Kolau Mountain Range in the southwestern Earth Kingdom. Due to its size, importance, and unique innovations, Omashu has always competed with Ba Sing Se for prominence in the Earth Kingdom.
This city is also well known for its famous delivery system powered by a combination of both earthbending and gravity. The gates of this bustling metropolis are guarded by an army of earthbenders. Surpassed in size and importance only by Ba Sing Se, Omashu was one of the last great strongholds of the Earth Kingdom during the Hundred Year War, and it continued to supply the Earth Kingdom Army with troops and supplies until it was taken by Fire Nation forces in the closing months of the great war.
