There’s still no support at all for the idea that the country of kenya considered itself a republic at the time, but for this 10 mile coastal strip yes. I haven’t heard or come across this province calling itself “Republic of Kenya” yet, but they did seek autonomy and wanted their flag side by side with the country one.

Interesting.

I would think that this territory would've had its own name for itself, something other than "Kenya."

Of course, if they DID somehow call themselves "the Republic of Kenya," that would change the ball game.

No evidence so far, but I'm open to it.

Didn’t sound like it in your above posts. No CONCRETE evidence one way or another but don’t let that stop you.
