Shura no Kuni (修羅の国 Land of Asura) is a country in Hokuto no Ken and Souten no Ken, it's located near the Sea of Death. It is the birthplace of the Hokuto and Gento Kō Ken martial arts. Once a part of China, Shura no Kuni became a violent country ruled by warlords. Male Shura receive a spartan upbringing, learning only how to fight and kill. Only 1% of Shura boys reach adulthood. Females can only hope to become a wife of a Shura, as there is no other option for them.
It is an isolationist nation-- no one is allowed to enter or leave the country. Violation of this law is an automatic death sentence.
The Asura live in fear of the Rakshasa (羅刹 Rasetsu), the legendary Asura-devouring beast whose identity Shachi has adopted.
