[Star Trek] How did the Klingons ever manage to build a spacefaring civilisation?

They have a strong tendency to be hot-headed and short-sighted, highly prone to violence, with little respect for intellectual pursuits, and leadership often being decided by melee combat.

This doesn't lend itself to the stable, intricate infrastructure and highly educated population required for that kind of advancement. So how did they work around that?

I’m gonna guess that not all Klingons are hot-head, rash types. There must be many individuals in the species who are more intelligent and less impulsive who make great engineers (and doctors, lawyers, priests, or their equivalents thereof), but they are simply underrepresented in the higher echelons of the military and government. Ergo, Starfleet (and, by proxy, the viewer) just doesn’t have much contact with the Klingon nerds.
