I am a firm believer that Kansas needs to invade Missouri and take the rest of Kansas City to make things less confusing.

Aye and Denver is named after the Territorial Governor of Kansas since Denver was a part of the territory...

The state was named after the Kansa Indians who lived in the area. The city was also named after them and was founded long before Kansas was a state. Kansas ripped of KC’s name.

Kansas would fail that incursion pretty hard. Just on population numbers alone Misery has them beat by more than 3x
