	Qo'noS is the Klingon homeworld, pronounced as Kronos. The Klingon High Council, governing body of the Klingon Empire, is situated in the First City on Qo'noS. Early Star Trek literature referred to Qo'noS as "Klinzhai", but the TNG episode Heart of Glory called the planet "Kling". It was the film Star Trek VI which officially established the name as Qo'noS. Qo'noS is depicted as green in color when viewed from orbital space. It includes a lone huge land mass with a vast ocean, a severely tilted axis that causes wild seasonal changes, a turbulent atmosphere and extremes of both warm and frigid weather. Around the 14th century, Qo'noS was invaded by the Hur'q. The planet was first visited by Humans in 2151. In 2293, the nearby moon [[Praxis]], a key energy-production facility for the Klingon Empire, exploded after an accident involving over-mining which sent out a subspace shock wave, causing severe damage to the planet's ozone layer. This event forced planning for the evacuation of the planet and led to the signing of the First [[Khitomer ~~Accord~~]] with the Federation. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country). Qo'noS first joined the Federation sometime in some fashion after 2327 and before 2365. (TNG: "Samaritan Snare")		Qo'noS is the Klingon homeworld, pronounced as Kronos.

It was there in approximately 1373 that Kahless and the Lady Lukara fought a pitched battle in the city's Great Hall against the soldiers of Molor.

Shortly after their victory the two began their great romance, the stuff of Klingon legend. (DS9: "Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places")
	* [[Quin'lat]]		* Quin'lat - Quin'lat was an ancient city on Qo'noS, the Klingon homeworld. Klingon history tells of a great storm that struck the city centuries ago while Kahless the Unforgettable was there. One man went outside to face the storm, to 'stand before the wind and make it respect [him]." The man was killed. Kahless' clone would later remark, "The wind does not respect the fool." (TNG: "Rightful Heir")
	* [[Tong Vey]]		* Tong Vey - Tong Vey is a historic Klingon city in which a group of warriors, after winning a great victory, were ordered by Emperor Sompek to slaughter every last villager and burn the city to the ground.
