As a rule Star Trek has always had a hard time getting its distances and travel times straight. I tend to ignore it or assume that the Star Trek universe is more crowded than our own. [Given the speed of phasers, perhaps light moves slower there and light years are just a fraction of ours.] :-)
As to the Klingon's, I still prefer the history used in Star Fleet Battles. If I remember correctly, the Klingons were part of a multi-racial slave empire that overthrew the Old Kings. Thus, you can have may flavors of Klingon that share a common culture. Separate clans, civil wars, power struggles, these are Klingon things. Genetic manipulation and pLastic surgery conspiracies are not.
