Kantoh

Kantoh is an advanced metropolis located on an archipelago off the eastern coast of the main continent of Yeddo. It has one of the highest GDP's on Yeddo next to Port Oraulan.

Kantoh was much quicker to recover from the Blackout compared to other city-states on Yeddo. A greater proportion of Valerian ruins in the area were intact, and the locals were able to advance much further in architectural engineering and other scientific fields. However, they were in a period of self-isolation until the late 1800s AB where they restricted trade with other nations.

Kantoh is also known for its hybrid population, with over 70% of the population featuring hybrid traits.

Culture

Traditional

Historically, Kantoh's culture has been one of politeness and courtesy. It is customary to always speak in a mild manner and to maintain control over one's emotions. This can still be seen especially in the elder populations, although it is more lax around younger generations. While Kantoh's roots are still revered, self-expression has become all the more important.

Fascinationg with Humans

Non-hybrid humans are considered fascinating, and many locals look at them with intrigue and curiousity. It is a reverse concept to the fascination with "catgirls" that many humans have. A bizarre fashion trend emerged where a hybrid would make use of a wig to cover the ears on top of their head and attach fake human ears as a means of trying to look cute. The local human population naturally answered this by often wearing fake ears.
