The new homeworld of the Federation Kazleti is generally considered a balmy, attractive planet and is a popular tourist destination. Earth-like in its size and characteristics, it is warm with relatively mild seasons and diverse biospheres. The Kazleti have been careful stewards of their new homeworld, building their cities and towns in harmony with the natural landscape, and the orbital shipyards are often visible to the naked eye at night. | The new homeworld of the Federation Kazleti is generally considered a balmy, attractive planet and is a popular tourist destination.

====Introduction==== | |||
Originating from the world of Kazletzin, directly in the middle of what would become Klingon Neutral Zone, the Kazleti were forced to evacuate their original homeworld 350 years ago when a natural disaster slowly rendered the planet uninhabitable. This event has since become known as "The Sundering" in Kazleti history. | |||
The hastily-constructed evacuation armanda was slow, requiring the Kazleti to choose between trying to find safe haven with the nearby, nascent Klingon Empire, or commit to a long and uncertain journey through the stars. | |||
Many chose to swear fealty to Klingon Empire, and the Kazleti became one of their most prominent subject species races. Granted a harsh, barely habitable world to colonise by their new rulers, they survived and thrived on both the planet and in the Empire by emphasising their existing warrior culture. These Kazleti are known as bold warrior-poets, renowned for their skills in language and battle. | |||
A second group struck out in the opposite direction, wishing to determine their own destiny instead of choosing who would dictate it to them. During the long journey, these Kazleti were forced to cooperate and overcome the old clan antagonisms, developing into a unified, cohesive culture. 200 years after setting out, they located and settled their new homeworld. | |||
Between the original evacuation and the signing of the Khitomer Accords, the two groups of Kazleti were essentially isolated from one another. Though there are some parallels between the two, time and distance have conspired to create two distinct and very separate societies. | |||
