The Kingdom | The Kingdom was founded in 2008 on one square foot of land in Scotland. Timm Miller, an American living in southern California, became the legal owner of this tiny piece of property and promptly declared it an independent nation. The country was originally called "Lamia," however, this name was later deemed unacceptable when it was learned that a ''lamia'' is a kind of mythological vampire. Timm changed the name to Shiloh, which means "people of peace." | ||
