    First, Ty'Gokor itself is a base within a planetoid, not a starbase - though it has bases in it's orbit.

    Second, the only time the Klingons moved their operations to Ty'Gokor was in the heat of the Dominion War. Normally though, the High Council and the Chancellor guide the path of the Empire from Quo'nos.

    Thus, Klingons start at Quo'nos, the heart of the Empire - Feds start at Earth, home of Starfleet Command and Starbase 01.


    Edit: In other words, you asking why Klingons don't start at Ty'gokor would be comparable to asking why Feds don't start at Deep Space 9.

    I was going to say all that, except say that the Feds don't start at Del Taco.

    Yeah, seriously. Taco Bell won the Fast Food Wars, people. Get with the program!

    Wasn't it Pizza hut that won the fast food wars?

    anyway, Ty'Gokor is a planetoid and most of it's correct except that it was during the federation-klingon war that klingon command moved there, not the dominon war. If i recall correctly O'Brien mentioned it'd take half of starfleet just to penetrate it's defences, so i doubt that Starfleet has destroyed it.

    Nope, it was Taco Bell. Every restaurant in the future was a Taco Bell (according to Demolition Man, anyway).

    Demolition man i saw said "Pizza hut", this explains why:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demolition_Man_%28film%29
    Hints are dropped throughout the movie that the United States underwent a period of anarchy before it was stabilized. In particular, Taco Bell is the only restaurant available, because it won the "Franchise Wars". In some versions in Australia, Europe and the Arab World this was changed to Pizza Hut, another PepsiCo (now Yum! Brands) franchise that is more popular in those countries. In some television edits, the restaurant name was removed altogether

    You're right there, although I personally consider the short-lived Federation-Klingon war to be part of the "Dominion War Scenario" - so I guess that explains my little mix-up there.
