Some of the information provided is from "The Ashes of Eden" Novel, the Star Trek Fan Club "Cha'ouw Empire" and the Star Trek Fan writers who were involved in the virtual documentation of the history of the Cha'ouw Empire.
The following information is cited from fan sources such as
The Cha'ouw Homeworld, Chal, was an uninhabited planet that was first colonized by the Klingons in 2264. During the short-lived Klingon-Romulan Alliance it was decided that the colony would host a cross breeding program and a hidden military storage facility of both Romulan and Klingon weapons and vessels to be used in a surprise invasion of the Federation. The invasion never materialized however the colony was abandoned by both the Romulans and Klingons in 2289 and left with the hidden base for possible future use.
A Federation Starship found the location in 2289 and opened dialog with the inhabitance of Chal. In 2392 the Federation, in a good will gesture, gives the Chal a stripped down starship, the recently decommissioned USS Enterprise-A with retired Captain James T. Kirk in command. There he meets Teilani, whom he falls in love. However their time together is short lived as a rival and conspirator from the Khitomer Conference, now Commander, Starfleet, Admiral Androvar Drakewho is attempting to ignite a war between the Klingons and Federation in order to destroy the agreements negotiated at that recently concluded peace conference and after the hidden base on Chal was revealed. Using the Enterprise-A and himself as bait, Kirk lures Drake into a nebula where the proud starship is destroyed but not before rescued by Captain Hikaru Sulu and the Excelsior. The later action between Kirk and Drake leads directly to the death of Admiral Drake and the thwarting of the conspiracy. (ST Novel: Ashes of Eden).
(NOTE: Entering divergence from Star Trek canon established in the novel Ashes of Eden.) After Kirk leaves Chal, Teilani discovers she is pregnant with his child but by the time word was to able reach him, Kirk had already died aboard the Enterprise-B. Teilani has a normal son, which she names after James Kirk and becomes K'Jam'S[1] of the Cha'ouwian House of KiRk (pronounced Key Rock).
K'Jam'S would later become a leader among the Chal, attending Starfleet Academy (starting a tradition of Cha'ouw princes altering their appearance and going to the academy), becoming a starship captain in his own right and then leaving Starfleet to become a military leader in his own people's Star Fleet.
In 2324, despite Federation opposition, the Klingon Empire decided to reclaim Chal in the absence of Romulan challenge. However, with their newly established space fleet, the Chal was preparing for such an event when the Klingon launched a force sized fleet in an attempt to assert their claim. The Klingon force was met by a equally strong fleet in the one and only battle of their brief conflict, known as the Battle of the Illinois Sector (which actually happened within Federation space in Sector 021).
