The hills around the city of Krestible, the plains just to the north and the stretch of the Yatils to the west are the limits of this canton. It has the greatest degree of variety of any of the cantons and this is reflected in its social dynamics.

Three clans make up the population of Krestible - Hussen, Rosrijder and Weisspeer - each of which has its own unique identity. In addition, as a major trade hub in Perrenland, Krestible has been exposed to many foreign influences. This serves to make it a region of contrasts. The Rosrijder and Weisspeer clans argue over their horses, the rural Weisspeer folk thumb their noses at their 'soft' townsfolk cousins, and the Hussen clan members clamour to be noticed.

Sitting as they do on the Krestingstrek, the most likely path of invasion from Ket (which has previously made plain its interest in annexing Perrenland) the folk of Krestible are vigilant and militant. Perrenalnd has a strong military presence in this canton.

The canton annually rotates the position of Hintervoormann amongst the three clans, each of which elects one of its members to the position when it is their turn. This leads to a changeable and lively political atmosphere where there is always an amount of 'lobbying' going on at any given time.
