The location of Kling on a star chart
Kling was a population center or location within the Klingon Empire.
Korris referred to docile Klingons as "the traitors of Kling." (TNG: "Heart of Glory")
The location of Kling was depicted on a Federation star chart in 2293. It was located near Organia and Ingraham B. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Background
According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia: "At the time the episode was written, Kling was intended as the name of the Klingon Homeworld. Once the episode was filmed, it was realized that the name sounded pretty silly, so later scripts simply referred to "the Homeworld." The only time the Homeworld was given a name was in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, when it was called Qo'noS, pronounced "kronos."" Of course, since this passage originally appeared in the Encyclopedia, the term "Qo'noS" has been referenced on numerous occasions.
Consequently, Kling has been referenced in the Star Trek Encyclopedia as a "A district or city on the Klingon Homeworld."
In the computer game Star Trek: 25th Anniversary the computer data bank mentions the Klingons "originate from the planet Kling."
