Land of Asura
- Shura no Kuni (修羅の国 Land of Asura)
- A country featured in Hokuto no Ken and Souten no Ken, located near the Sea of Death. It is the birthplace of the Hokuto, Nanto 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.
- The army of the country is the strongest army in the series even outmatches Raoh, Souther, Shin and Jakoh troop even the strongest master of Gento likes Falco has some trouble fighting an average soldier. However, they mostly act like the common thug in the series since they use most of their muscle not their brain.
Caste
