Unbranded Keemun as we wait for our visitor to arrive for Day Two; Elephant Camp, Hill tribe villages, Cobra shows, Orchid Nurseries, etc., etc.
Many of the US States are named in or for Native American tribes or tribal languages;
Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware, Kentucky, Mississippi, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Wyoming, Idaho, Iowa, etc., etc., and another bunch given the Spanish names the tribes used. The remainders seem to be named for British Royalty or English cities.
