Aside from the apt Star Trec definition, there is this...

Caledonia (/ˌkælɪˈdoʊniə/; Latin: Calēdonia [kaleːˈdonia]) was the Latin name used by the Roman Empire to refer to the part of Great Britain (Latin: Britannia) that lies north of the River Forth, which includes most of the land area of SCOTLAND. Today, it is used as a romantic or poetic name for all of Scotland.

A Trump connection, anyway, although the Trump Movement is in every way is single minded and seeks knowledge [and Transparency]. 🤓

Rita: Or Macedonia, the home of Alexander of Macedon, Alexander the great. (And he was Great, and for his time, pretty enlightened.)

From wikipedia

"Alexander III of Macedon (Ancient Greek: Ἀλέξανδρος, romanized: Alexandros; 20/21 July 356 BC – 10/11 June 323 BC), commonly known as Alexander the Great,[a] was a king of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon.[a] He succeeded his father Philip II to the throne in 336 BC at the age of 20, and spent most of his ruling years conducting a lengthy military campaign throughout Western Asia and Egypt. By the age of 30, he had created one of the largest empires in history, stretching from Greece to northwestern India.[2] He was undefeated in battle and is widely considered to be one of history's greatest and most successful military commanders."[3][4]

Not sure if this is the Intended comparison, but don't think I want him to use it if it is. (George Washington or Lincoln would be better.)
