Deneb Sector

Sitting between Corridor and the Spinward Marches, Deneb (Zhodani: Nieklsdia) is regarded by the core Imperium as a coarse, uncultured sector, while the nobility of the Marches see it as decadent and past its prime. Neither of these views is fair or accurate, but both contain a grain of truth.

Few humans had tried to settle here prior to the advent of the Third Imperium, but as Cleon's empire expanded the sector quickly became regarded as the brave new frontier. The Vargr occupying the Coreward subsectors were pushed aside, and settlers began to face the many problems of life on new worlds. Support from the Imperial heartland was minimal, but that did little to stem the tide of humaniti - entrepreneurs and opportunists, adventurers and explorers, the poor and the oppressed.

The people still show some of the characteristics developed during the frontier period. They tend towards rugged individualism, resourcefulness, and inventiveness, with an urge to explore (both physically and scientifically). There is a strong belief in equality.

Almost since settlement began, Deneb has been seen as a dumping ground for unwanted nobility, frequently Solomani. For instance, after narrowly avoiding a charge of High Treason, the Humbolt family governed Vincennes subsector from its incorporation in 243 until the waning of Solomani influence which followed the Civil War. Empress Arbellatra's policies caused their own difficulties, however, when the troublesome Solomani noble family Carles-Davies was placed over the predominantly Vilani population of Pretoria subsector, leading eventually to the Rachelean revolts of the early 1000s.

With six Imperial Research Stations, the Naval facilities at HRD, the Jumpspace Institute, and the Sklar Astrophysical Society, Deneb prides itself on its scientific achievements.
