qo'rob puppet (n) (this is as in “puppet state” or “puppet government”)

Sounds like the name of Theo Marcuse's character in TOS "Catspaw" who, when revealed in his true form, was portrayed by a puppet.

BTW, the explanation of this word makes me question whether Kermit the Frog would be described as {qo'rob}. Or perhaps, if the word means one state under the control of another, Klingons would make the same metaphorical connection, only in reverse.
