From their first
appearance in the year 2218, the Klingons developed from a zealous "seek-and-destroy"
warrior race to one with honorable principles and some of the bravest warriors
yet seen.
With a partly
exo-skeletal bone structure, Klingons are capable of comparably greater physical
strength and endurance than Terran humans.
Their ages-old
honor system and house/lineage centered society is a throwback to the chivalry
of medeival Europe on Earth.
Despite their tendency towards blood and violence, the Klingons have proven to be vital in the defense of the Alpha Quadrant
