The "civilized" government of the planet Missouri was overthrown by revolutionaries who have embraced the lifestyle and culture of the United States' Old West frontier. Suspicious of technology, the denizens of Missouri nevertheless ride robot horses and drink synthetic liquor to pass the time on a planet whose main source of income comes from exporting western souvenirs (i.e. miniature outhouses, wagons, revolvers, etc.), staging gunfights for tourists, and providing "living antiques" in the form of gunfighters being placed on other planets as zoo specimens.
