Klingon Empire | Star Trek 

Actually do wonder how well Shakespeare do it Klingon. Since his writing really takes advantage of English. Iambic Pentameter do not work in every language after all.

@@Cythil They actually redid Hamlet in Klingon.

@@davidkelly4210 True. But I have not looked it up. Also, I do not speak Kilingon so I am not the best to judge. So I will still wonder ;)

Not really very clever. Nice tr.

Klingon are a Soviet Union analogo in TOS 1966 series but their culture with Honor warriors and feudalism and nobility like German Empire or Imperial Japan

I love how Worf constantly spoke about how humans didn't understand concepts of honor. Maybe he meant Klingon honor. He should've been specific. A lot of Earth cultures put great stock in honor, well into the 23rd and 24th centuries I'd imagine. Japan and the old samurai code easily comes to mind.

I am not sure Japan and Samurai would still be any real thing by that point honestly. WW3 and the Eugenics wars that saw Khan rule most of the Earth were pretty devastating. And although we see it being really common now, Japan itself had pretty much set aside and forgotten the Samurai before WW2. It was during the war that Japan needed to bolster the zeal of their armies and sought out ways to inspire them. That was when they really brought back ideas around Bushido and using it drive their forces at the time. But yes Klingon Honour from outsides can be fickle and almost seem to fall into the "That was then, what have you done for me today" trope. The longer lasting alliance with the Federation being inspired by the loss on the Enterprise C trying to fight off the Romulans for instance. Ultimately the Federation and Klingons are very distinct and although willing to begrudge one another, they do have their limits. Such as whether one will side with the other in a battle. SF Debris made an interesting point about having Internal and External Honour. How someone views themself and how others view them and their honour. So when Worf stands against Gowron he is doing it for his sense of his own personal internal code of honour. But doing so disgraces him in the eyes of Gowron and those aligned with him. So losing him External Honour. Star Trek Online also plays into this. The species 8472 aka Undine in that timeline start using infiltrators to sneak into and break up the Alpha powers. The Klingons find and kill theirs before it can cause too much trouble. When they try to warn the Federation they are ignored. When they try to talk to you as a new player you brush them off and a fight breaks out. Things lead to another spate of war which only ends when another greater threat pushes them back together to face the return of the Iconians. The Klingons were actually correct in the STO timeline but because they are ignored or seemingly pushed aside they break off the Khitomer Accords and new hostilities follow.

Sam Ronin, I was just trying to bring up a historical viewpoint. The blanket statements that Worf has sometimes made that humans don’t understand honor are bunk. Doesn’t Starfleet have honor as a core value? The honor of the fleet, conducting oneself in an honorable way, etc. That may not be the same as Klingon sense of honor, but honor is to be expected in a war fighting force. Now, I understand that Starfleet is an exploratory fleet, not a true war fighting fleet. They have ships for diplomacy and exploration that just happen to be armed and armored (although one could argue not that well). Although post-Deep Space Nine and Nemesis we might see a shift toward having true warships. Unlikely, but possible.

I don't know there fairly strong ally by the end of DS9

Daniel Parkison nor does Worf his view is based on a lack of actual knowledge of his culture and more of a far fetched romantic view of them.

Bloody terrans!

BE QUIET!

And now for something completely different ......

@thesnesman5235 Dude -- Enterprise. 'Nuff said.

If I ever get ownership the Star Trek ip I’m going to abduct the Ds9 Writer’s and force them to write something to continue the timeline immediately post dominion war

Yum Yum

Trust me, you don’t want a closer look. You don’t want to be assimilated, do you?

They're complex, and still not a lot is known about them. Just their history with the Federation.

The Borg would like to have a closer look at you.

They kinda want to make this episode, but legend says they're resisting

so does everyone else

Except for whoever is doing this channel. Everything else is research quite good, so I wonder where that comes from. And Kronos is wayyy easier than Quoknosch?

Sounds like the Star Trek Discovery pronunciation.

The "Q" sound in Klingon sounds a bit like "kr" in English. That's why there are two spellings for the planet.

@@snekula5353 I was thinking that as I read this. The spelling for it is Qo'nos, but it's pronounced "Kronos." One the transliteration, the other the "actual" spelling.

Judge Dredd yes pls

They're on the list, but a lack of footage related to anything other than their ships or marines makes going into their history and society a bit difficult. With any luck, future episodes of The Expanse will fix this problem soon.

Wow thanks for replying. How about the 12 colonies of Kobol instead.

GOD, YES PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

Omg yes my favourite Expanse faction

Oh that's a good one

The Emperor approves

Video run time 7 hours 47 minutes and 37 seconds :P

The Men of Krieg sends their regard.

Yes Pls. That would be Epic.

Dalek, vs Cybermen, vs Jem Hadar, vs Klingons, vs Borg? Nah, stupid idea.

That'd be awesome!

Alex Masterson Ditto for one on the Time Lords.

Vs replicators

The Adeptus Astartes would still own all of them. Need to exterminate a whole culture? Send in an entire Adeptus Astartes chapter. As one RU-vid lore video said, "Sending an entire Adeptus Astartes chapter to subdue one rebellious planet is like beating a mouse to death with a fully loaded dump truck. It's messy. Loud. And extremely comprehensive."

THE SONS OF KILRAH

Already done! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6d2cB0cZW8U.html

Ow Cool!!! Thx for the link!

Mattias petäjämaa Like to see how the Borg started.

FULLY

I don't think any of the prime writers even know about the origins of the Borg or how they became the way they were discovered in tng, I haven't ever seen a single episode of Discovery so if something happened in that I wouldn't know

@@TitaniumFallout and I'm not too sure about the theory that Voyager VI created the Borg, so I hope they don't put that in any timelines they might come up with.

your spelling is perfect lol

United Earth Directorate from StarCraft

The thumbs up is relative to the false gods/devils in the PREH. I am in Heaven.

Yeah, "Krawh-nosh" made me cringe a couple of times.

Only if you don't speak Klingon

As far as I know, when characters in the show have spoken Klingonese and mentioned the homeworld they pronounced it "KRONOS" even in their own native language. But for the sake of argument, let's say you are right... The video is in English, and the same way when you're doing a documentary on Jerusalem you would say Jerusalem and not Yerushalaim (The way it is pronounced in Hebrew), same thing should apply here.

Kronos was the anglicized pronunciation (like Romulus), whereas Qo'noS (Qohh-Nosh) was the closest klingon pronunciation. So she was pretty good with the actual pronounciation.

Karim Ettahiri Tau'ri History is basically our own history but in the first place, the Tau'ri have no unified Government.

TheLegoCraftGuy999 isnt that what our imaginations are for so how about the ancients.

@@karim.ettahiri2605 old ancients pre Ascension, Times of Siege of Atlantis and at least Blending into earth and even some other places.... And a second one on ascended ancients, maybe even a 3rd one on the ori sect of ancients.

ServantOfOdin templin did not name them, so don't bitch here

1) THey didn't name them, yes. But the Klingon Empire is not named "Imperial Klingon Empire" either. They're simply the "Klingon Empire", or the "Imperial Klingon Domain". So this "Imperial Klingon Empire" is the Templins dubbing. 2) It's not bitching if it's pointing out a bloody error. 3) Nice to see someone being so arrogant to go as far as insulting someone, who you have no idea about, who you don't know, and not even supply anything substantial to the points made. Farewell.

@@ServantOfOdin Imperial Klingon domain, neat.

+Kevin Murphy Indeed. We hear Klingons say "Kronos" all the time.
