	Gowron
		Gowron, however, faced opposition from the rival Duras[?] house, causing the Klingon Civil War[?].
		In 2372 Gowron launched an assault upon the Cardassian Union, claiming that the newly installed civilian Detapa Council[?] was infested with shapeshifters from the Dominion, an emerging Gamma Quadrant power.
		Gowron restored the Khitomer Accords and the alliance with the Federation and after a stalemate of two years Klingon forces under the lead of Martok had gained the upper hand.

		Gowron was installed as council leader in a ceremony attended by Jean-Luc Picard, who had served as Arbiter of Succession.
		Gowron's leadership was quickly challenged by Lursa and B'Etor, surviving members of the Duras family who sought to install Duras's illegitimate son, Toral, as council leader.
		Gowron reacted strongly to the supposed return of Kahless the Unforgettable in 2369, correctly surmising that the new Kahless was part of a political effort to discredit him.

	STARTREK.COM : Biography
		Gowron was chosen over Duras as his successor by Jean-Luc Picard, who served as a non-native Arbiter of Succession by request of the dying K'mpec.
		Gowron proved to be more a pragmatist and politician than an outright warrior, although his skill with the short blade was not to be doubted.
		Gowron's positions have ranged from hearing minor disputes before the Council to attacking Cardassia and breaking the Khitomer Alliance with an uncooperative Federation in early 2372, all due to Dominion manipulation.

	Klingon Civil War - Memory Alpha (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The war was fought between forces loyal to Gowron, the legally appointed candidate, and the supporters of the House of Duras, led by Lursa and B'Etor.
		The war was a decisive victory for Gowron, but it was achieved only through indirect assistance from the United Federation of Planets in exposing covert Romulan assistance to the forces of the Duras family.
		Although Gowron's position was threatened by the appearance of a clone of Kahless the Unforgettable in 2369, Gowron was generally treated as the uncontested leader of the Empire until 2375.

	Star Trek Lives - Personnel - Gowron
		Gowron's leadership was quickly challenged by Lursa and B'Etor, surviving members of the Duras family who sought to install Duras's illegitimate son, Toral, as chancellor.
		Gowron, concerned more with consolidating his own power than with the welfare of his warriors, sent General Martok on a series of disastous missions that seriously undermined the Alpha Quadrant powers' position in the final weeks of the Dominion war.
		Appalled at Gowron's squandering of Klingon lives and fearing the survival of the empire was in jeopardy, Worf finally took upon himself to challenge Gowron for leadership of the High Council.

	TNG Episode: ``Rightful Heir'', Stardate 46852.2
		Gowron's arrival, however, puts that hope into question, as Gowron is convinced Kahless is an impostor and wants the idea of his return stopped immediately before the Klingons fall into a religious war.
		Gowron, however, insists that it is all a plot by Koroth to seize power, and that this "return" will lead to war between those who believe and those who do not.
		Gowron is skeptical, but when Worf threatens to denounce Gowron and withdraw his brother's support on the Council, Gowron agrees and bends his knee.

	Gowron
		Along with Duras, Gowron was one of the candidates to become Chancellor of the Klingon High Council after the death of K'mpec in 2367.
		Gowron launched an attack on the station, but this was unsuccessful.
		Gowron was not a great war leader; he was reluctant to assist the Federation in recapturing Deep Space Nine despite the station's vital strategic importance11, but did eventually send forces to help.

	The First Battle of Bajor
		Gowron seemed to be intent on destroying DS9 outright, but the use of boarding parties indicated that his true intent was to seize control of the station.
		Gowron's motives in this attack are murky; he claimed that the new Cardassian government was composed of changelings, but he had no evidence whatsoever.
		He knew Gowron could simply call up reinforcements of his own, but such escalation would lead to a full-blown Federation/Klingon war, and he reminded Gowron that a two-front war would not be in the best interests of the Klingon empire.

	Klingon
		Gowron issued a formal statement for assistance from the Federation, but dutifully observing the Prime Directive of non-interference, Starfleet declined to involve themselves in the war.
		Gowron knew his people hungered for the spiritual leadership of Kahless, and conceived an idea that would give Kahless the position to use his influence while keeping the real political power to himself and the High Council.
		Gowron admitted he was pushed to war by the Martok Changeling, who would have been able to take control of the government and weaken the Empire even further if his plot to kill Gowron through Sisko had succeeded.

	Gowron - Memory Alpha (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Gowron, son of M'Rel, was Chancellor of the Klingon High Council in the late 24th Century.
		The move was condemned by the Federation Council, and Gowron withdrew from the Khitomer Accords, ending the decades long alliance with the Federation.
		Even though Gowron's actions toward the end of his life were clearly dishonorable, he died in honorable combat (Worf even performed the Klingon death ritual over the body) and so it is likely that Gowron ascended to Sto-vo-kor after his death.

	Tacking Into the Wind
		Gowron complains to Sisko that Martok's skills as a commander are faltering - he was injured and many ships destroyed in the last attack - but Sisko snaps that the blame for the battle should rest with the person who ordered the foolish, dangerous mission.
		Worf already knows: Gowron's arrogance and fear of Martok's political power are driving him to try to humiliate the general in battle by making him fight battles he can't win.
		Worf tells Dax his problems with Gowron because she is still a member of the House of Martok.

		Gowron is isolated, and needs the support of the Council to survive--so he cannot challenge them on Worf's behalf yet.
		Kurn is initially against Gowron, preferring to sweep the entire Council aside in favor of new blood, but Worf, as the older brother, claims that he is the one to speak for the family.

		When Sisko approaches Starfleet Command with Odo's suspicion that Gowron, the Klingon leader, is really one of Odo's people -- a Changeling impersonating Gowron -- he is instructed to expose the Changeling.
		Since the emitters have been destroyed, he says Gowron must be killed in order to prove his identity, and leads the four back into the hall.
		Gowron realizes that the Founders misled Odo into thinking he was a spy so that the Federation would eliminate him and allow Martok to take control.

		Starfleet Command decided that the best end to end the war was to expose Gowron for what he really was, and so a Starfleet infiltration mission lead by Captain Sisko was ordered to infiltrate Tiger Core, (the location of Klingon War Headquarters) and expose the Gowron Changeling.
