Trek history:
Worf's father, Mogh, was accused of having aided the Romulans in attacking
the Khitomer Outpost of which he was governor, but K'mpec revealed to Worf
that the traitor was in fact Duras' father, Ja'rod. (TNG "Sins of the Father")
Kahlest was young Worf's {ghojmoq} (nanny/governess) on Khitomer. (TNG
"Sins of the Father")
Worf had not yet reached the Age of Inclusion - the sixth year of a
Klingon's life - when he was orphaned at Khitomer. (TNG "Heart of Glory")
The Khitomer Accords began in AD 2293. (ST6)
"After years marked by increased cooperation, mutual understanding, and
sharing of knowledge, a protracted period of relative amity between the
Klingon Empire and the United Federation of Planets came to an abrupt end
not long ago when the Empire withdrew from the peace treaty known as the
Khitomer Accords over an incident regarding war with the Cardassian Union.
Ironically, that same war has brought the two governments back together.
Though he did so with some trepidation, Klingon Chancellor Gowron recently
agreed to once again honor the accords and to engage in joint missions with
the Federation." (KGT 1)
