Kingdom City is a village in Callaway County, Missouri, United States.

McCredie residents fought so hard for the highway that they staged a parade through the heart of Fulton with banners that read "54-40 or Fight".

When the road was being built and huge numbers of workers were brought in to do the work, McCredie became a boom town, with future Kingdom City receiving its first gas station and a two-story hotel, which (however) burned down in 1930.

(Bernard Parker) Beamer, suggested Kingdom City, in reflection of the nickname for Callaway County.

Through the 1920s and 30s numerous dance halls, restaurants, cafés, and hotels would come and go in Kingdom City.

In 1970, the McCredie Post Office moved to Kingdom City and took the community's name.

This was the same year Kingdom City incorporated as a village and included the former unincorporated community of McCredie.
