[edit] History
[edit] Formation
It is believed that Kahless formed the first Klingon Empire, on the principles of honor and feudalism which he used to save his race from the chaos that the Fek'lhri perpetuated.
[edit] Second Klingon Empire
The first reform came in the 22nd to 23rd Century, when, as a result of the Augment virus, the old beliefs were abandoned for something akin to "facism."
[edit] Downfall
By the 2270s, the Klingons had fully recovered from the affects of the Augment virus, and began attempting to reform their ideals back to the old ways. The explosion of Praxis made a prolonged war with the Federation impossible, so they began talking of peace, which by 2353 became alliance. This shaky alliance lasted for some time, ending briefly in the 2370s, only to be re-established shortly thereafter.
- According to the events of the Countdown comic series to Star Trek IX, the alliance with the Federation and the Empire remained in 2387. Furthermore, fanon on this site has made that the Empire eventually collapsed and joined the Federation in the 25th Century.
[edit] Third Klingon Empire
A Klingon from the 24th Century arrived in 2405 only to find her people as the "pets of the Federation", and eventually took her leave of her post and led a great exodus from the Federation, re-establishing the Empire as a galactic power and making alliance with the Gorn Hegemony.
- This is in agreement with the soon-to-be-released Star Trek: Online, which has the Empire never joining the Federation but declaring war.
