Memory Beta, non-canon Star Trek Wiki

The Yangs were one of two ethnic groups of natives who resided on the planet Omega IV. They were engaged for many years in conflict with the Kohms. The Yangs held an American flag and a copy of the Constitution of the United States of America as sacred items and words handed down by God. When James T. Kirk corrected their 'sacred words' they seemed unaware that any other culture knew American history. (TOS episode: "The Omega Glory")

A century before Kirk's visit, the crew of the Earth freighter ECS Philadelphia had visited Omega IV and left copies of the Constitution and American flag with the Yangs, to inspire them in their struggle against the Kohms. Sadly, the Philadelphia crew all died from the Omega IV virus shortly after leaving the planet. (DTI novel: Forgotten History)
