Kentucky is a region of the North American continent on the planet Earth, with boundaries that were created as the area was settled as a geopolitical subdivision of the United States of America nation.
History
Edit
Kentucky was famous for breeding horses, and a celebrated horse race, the Kentucky Derby, was held there annually at least through the late 23rd century. (TOS novel: Vulcan's Forge)
Kentucky bourbon was an alcoholic beverage produced in Kentucky, and a favorite of both Leonard McCoy and William T. Riker. (ST - The Modala Imperative comic: "In Memory Yet Green...")
Another of McCoy's favorite drinks, the mint julep, originated from this part of Earth. (TOS episode: "This Side of Paradise")
