Kardashian Divorce -- Why They Broke Up!

 CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

Kim Kardashian will NEVER, EVER move to Minnesota, and everyone knows that -- except Kris Humphries.

One of the main points of contention in the marriage was where the couple would live after all of the wedding madness finally died down. 

Sources say Kris was passionate about eventually settling down in Minnesota, where he's from. He believed Kim was on board with the plan.... but sadly, SHE WASN'T.

Sources say Kim -- who's from L.A. -- wants to stay near her family -- and she also feels that staying in town is the best thing for her career.

So why didn't this conversation come up before the $10 million wedding? We're told the two talked about their future ... but got caught up in the hooplah and figured they would simply figure it out after they tied the knot.

Apparently it's not a nasty break-up -- but the two have come to a realization that it's not a long-term fit.
