The first season, Book One: Air, sees Korra move to Republic City to learn airbending from Tenzin, Avatar Aang's son. The second season adds the southern polar region, home of the Southern Water Tribe, as a main setting in addition to Republic City, while the third and fourth seasons take place largely in the Earth Kingdom. Rapid technological growth has displaced the spirituality of bending, and what was considered a renowned martial art in Avatar: The Last Airbender is now commonplace, with benders in Republic City using their abilities to commit crime, compete in spectator sports, and fulfill everyday jobs. The 1920s-inspired metropolis is described as 'if Manhattan had happened in Asia' by the series' creators, and its residents are united by their passion for 'pro-bending', a spectator sport in which two teams composed of an earthbender, waterbender, and firebender throw each other out of a ring using bending techniques. The first season is mostly set in Republic City, the capital of the United Republic of Nations, a new multicultural sovereign state founded by Avatar Aang after the end of The Last Airbender. The Legend of Korra focuses on Avatar Korra, a seventeen-year-old girl from the Southern Water Tribe and the successor of Avatar Aang from The Last Airbender. Cyclically reincarnating among the world's four nations, the Avatar maintains peace and balance in the world. Only one person, the ' Avatar', can bend all four elements. As a result of a genocide in the series's backstory, there is only one living family of airbenders at the time of the series. Bending is carried out by spiritual and physical exercises, portrayed as similar to Chinese martial arts.

The distinguishing element of the series is 'bending', the ability of some people to telekinetically manipulate the classical element associated with their nation ( water, earth, fire, or air). The people of the world belong to four nations: the Water Tribes, the Earth Kingdom, the Fire Nation, and the Air Nomads. The Legend of Korra is set in the fictional world of Avatar: The Last Airbender, 70 years after the events of that series.
