Star Trek 6 - Qo'nos evacuation

Post by Uraniun235 »

"The total evacuation of Qo'nos has been calculated within the 50 Earth year time span." -Federation President

Suggests:
1) The Klingon homeworld has a very small global population.
or
2) Assuming a population of 1 billion, combined Klingon/Federation resources can move at least 20 million persons per year for 50 years.
or
3) The Federation President is talking out of his ass.

Iv heard once that the planet Q'o'nos had a population of over 400 Billion Klingons since their territory is very poor in habitable worlds.

Hey, remember in the TOS episode, "The Trouble with Tribbles," the Klingon captain referred to his language as "Klingonee?" :o

It was "Klingonese", not "Klingonee".

The script to The Motion Picture also refers to the language of the Klingons as "Klingonese".

Also in the TNG Companion by Larry Nemecek it refers to the Klingon Language as Klingonese, but on the kli.org site it is called Klinzhai.

Electric shocking body rocking beat streeting me to death"
