That's nowhere near conclusive. Kenya most likely did use the word "Republic" on their documents before Dec 1964.

Plenty of newspaper blurbs discounts your assumption.

This one below is not from "NEVADA PALLADIUM TIMES."

This is a news article clipping I found from The Chillicothe Constitution Tribune on April 11th, 1961 on Page 4 (Near the top center of the page.) Click Here if you wish to view the archive for yourself.

Keep in mind this was published in April of 1961 from a Missouri newspaper. Apparently the usage of the "Republic of Kenya" was not uncommon.

That is the purpose of this post. Please discuss.

You've got to be joking.

1961, That's more than two years before Kenya gained independence -- it was a colonial holding of Britain then. NO one thought of Kenya as a republic at the time. The newspaper account is simple error.

By the way have you heard of The Chillicothe Constitution Tribune? Be honest.
