While leaving central Missouri, I passed a community called Kingdom City. If I hadn't been told by Walt, my couchsurfing host, what the name referred to, I would have assumed the community got that name through a religious reference.
Turns out that during the American civil war, Calloway County, Missouri decided to succeed from the union and become it's own kingdom. Now that's wacky.
So can you guess where I'm going next? Here's two hints:
1) I'm not driving in a straight line to Colorado.
2) I'm going to learn about the human being, who second only to Jesus Christ, has more books written about him than anyone else in the history of world.
