Basically the Earth clan was a clan with their own city and were one of the very few people that rivaled the Water clan. But when the Lotans came the Water clan was the first to ally with them and take them in. So when another battle happened, the Lotan's thought it was just the Earth tribe being aggressive.

The water clan convinced them to aid in the battle and with their robots, they surrounded and destroyed their land, and cast them out into the desert after executing the king and his family. But one of the royal nurses saved the children of one of the kings brothers.

Defeated, the Earth clan were forced into the desert to die from the heat, but instead they became drifters. Some of the Lotans however didn't like the fact that they were being used and left the Water clan. But a number of them liked the position of being with a advanced military clan and stayed as generals of the army.
